Happy Valentine’s Day

I just wanted to take a minute to stop by and wish you all a Happy Valentine’s Day!  I am so blessed that God brought this amazing man into my life! Corey is a wonderful husband and father, and I am beyond blessed that he is my Valentine forever!

Now, I’m off to enjoy the weekend with my two Valentines. How are you spending your Valentine’s Day?

Snow Cream

We have gotten a lot of snow here over the past two days.  And since it rarely snows around here (actual snow, not ice), I jumped at the chance to make some snow cream!



I sat a bowl outside last night in anticipation of the snowstorm that was supposed to start early this morning. After lunch, I brought my bowl of snow inside and gathered the rest of my ingredients.



1 cup milk
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
4 – 6 cups fresh snow

Mix together the milk, sugar, and vanilla.  Add snow one cup at a time, and watch the ice cream magically form!  



Since it’s almost Valentine’s Day, I served the snow cream in my favorite red coffee bowl and added pink heart sprinkles. Enjoy!

Valentine’s Day Cards

This weekend, Cullen made some Valentine’s to send to his grandparents and close friends.  (And one for me to keep, of course!)



I painted his hand and used his hand prints to make a heart shape on white cardstock.  I then cut out the heart and put it on some kraft paper cardstock and wrote a little message from Cullen.

After the first three hand prints, Cullen was totally over the whole project, but he did really well about not getting paint everywhere.  And he thoroughly enjoyed the clean up.  Who knew washing your hands could be so much fun?!



I love how simple these were to make and how cute they ended up!  Corey and I have never really been Valentine’s Day celebrators, but having a little one has definitely made it more fun.  I am looking forward to making Valentine’s with Cullen every year…if he will let me!

























Now that these are in the mail, we are going to enjoy all the snow we are supposed to get over the next few days!
