i found these sweet mailboxes at target a while back and bought one for each of the kids. i got my inspiration for decorating them at emily giovanni's blog. she's incredible! i put some candy in each one and a little love note to each kid and gave them as a valentine's day gift. i plan to reuse these each year and add a new love note. then by the time they are teenagers (and hate me) they'll have a box full of love!
we had a good valentine's day, hope you all did as well. i bought some big yummy cookies from a local bakery, which the kids devoured.
so i found these cool new "baubles" here...
aren't they fun!? these were just some of my favorites. she has all kinds on her site, go check it out!
my dear mother has had the three older kids since saturday!! so jason and i went on a date. we ate at a new mongolian restaurant in rochester that was pretty good. then we went to best-buy and bought a movie, stopped at baker's square and bought a french silk pie and went home and gorged ourselves. it was lovely. we also went to gymboree (love) and bought a few things for the kiddos. i am tired today. too much sleep i guess (is that possible?) i have a big test this week and two next week. yucko! poor little josie needs her second flu shot today.
