Yesterday the kids received a Valentine package of goodies from my mom. It's always so fun to get mail. Especially from my mom, who always decorates the outside of the package so beautifully. There were a few highlights that the kids really enjoyed. It was a great day to receive goodies since it was a snow day and we were bored. It was the 9th snow day this year. We are on the tenth one today. The kids actually have to go to school on Saturday...what a bummer!
Anyways, back to the package. Madison received a journal that she basically spent the rest of the day writing in. That girl never gets sick of a new journal. There is an insane collection in her room. The cutest thing my mom made her was a cell phone card. Madison got such a kick out of it.
Now, I know most of you have been exposed at some point to the Where's Waldo? books. Tyler loves these, so you can imagine how much he loved this box from his Nana! Can you find him?
scroll down a bit
There he is!
This was too too cute and wonderfully creative!!!! Inside the box was polymer clay and instructions for making some animals with it. My mom printed them from here. Tyler wanted to get right to it. His little critters came out adorable. We already are going to need more clay!
On another note, I made some red velvet cupcakes. I love red velvet for Valentine's Day. I made the same ones as last year. Yummy! I had to leave some plain because Tyler does not like icing on his.
Oh Mama! She rocks!
