To: YOU, From: ME ; )

Today, Don't forget to:

Spend time with the ones you love.

Don't worry about the dishes, the vacuum, the trash or the laundry...  

It will be there tomorrow, but your loved ones might not.

Make sure you hug a little tighter today, and smile a little more.

  

Don't just have one Valentine... have many!

I hope you day is filled with Hearts, Smiles and Giggles.  Just as I hope mine will be!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Valentine's Day Gift Frames

A couple weeks ago I posted my 'Week in Pre-Review'.

I included a Valentine's Frame that Gracie was going to be working on to give to the Maw Maw's and Paw Paw's.  Well, she finally finished....  

Here is the teaser post that I included in the Week in Pre-Review:

 I found all of these great project supplies at Michael's AND they were all on SALE....  

Great Day!

So here we go with our project  ; )

 Step One: Paint the Frame:

Step Two:  Add Handprints.

(this was pretty tricky... notice there aren't any pictures of this being done.  Gracie's print went smooth, but Addison's print took a while to get and in the mean time, my hands got covered with paint.)  

Step Three:  Add some Decorations.

OOhhhh... Close up!

Step Four:  finished frame.......Drying!  

(yes.. on my burlap table runner.  yikes... never fear, no paint was smeared!)

And here is Gracie and Addison's Valentines Day Frame, ready to give to the Maw Maw's and Paw Paw's. And of course, one for ME!

Thanks for checking out our frames!

Talk to y'all soon!

Valentine's Day Cards

Let me start off by saying that I HATE buying Valentine's Cards, then buying candy to attach to the card (ie..suckers, sweet tarts or conversation hearts)!!

UGH!

So, for the last couple of years I have been making Gracie's Valentines.  

And of course, this year is no different.... Gracie is such a good sport about posing for pictures, she secretly LOVES not having the old 'run of the mill' Valentine's Cards.  And with the new Baby, Gracie got to help in the making of Addison's Valentine's.  

The 'very professional' Photo Shoots:

Gracie goes first, of course!

 She's such a Ham!

Next, it's Addison's turn:

  She was not too happy with the process...

Anyway, after some photo editing, via FotoFlexer, here are the finished projects:

Gracie's Card will include a Mustache... for hours of entertainment!

 Sorry, Addison's card will come with Nothing!  No Candy for the little ones!

Hope you enjoyed our Valentine's Day Cards.

Talk to ya'll soon,
