Valentine's 2011

Ugh!  It took me forever to get this post together.  Does anyone else have a terrible time trying to arrange photos in blogger?  I have to switch back and forth between the old and new editor.  UGH!  Anyways.  First up is the Valentine I made to hand out to family and friends.  I found this idea all over the web so I dont have just one link to give credit to.  I decided to make Valentine's Cake Pops to put in mine.  It took forever to get the shot of the kids.  Kylee was fine, but Clancy did not want to cooperate.  I wanted to get pics of them seperately also, to give to their teachers, but there was NO way that was happening with Clancy, so we just stuck with this one.
For Kylee's class we made iPod Valentines.  I found my inspiration here and here.  They turned out adorable!

This photo is totally throwing off the order of this post, but I am SO tired of messing with it.  These were what the kids and hubby woke up to on Valentine's Day.  Most of the kids things came from the Dollar Spot at Target.

Here are Clancy's Valentines for his class.  I found the idea here and ordered the shovels off of ebay.

I hate that I cant find the link that I found this cute Date Idea book at.  As soon as I locate it, I will post it.  I just printed it on red cardstock and put it on a ring and tied on a few ribbons.  I stuck it in the hubs Valentine.

Cold Weather Treats

Last night we made some cold weather treats for the cold front that blew in over night.  We made Chocolate covered Heart Marshmallows with Sprinkles for dipping in hot cocoa.  I saw Amanda make these over at Funny Days with Mommy and Maddie.  I think hers turned out a lot better than ours.  Like she said, the marshmallows were a pain.
I made these Peanut Butter Butterscotch Chipper cookies from Picky Palate.  They are delicious!!!
We had a lot of fun making Valentine Confetti that I found at 24/7 Moms.
Then I packaged up 1 package of Hot Cocoa mix w/ marshmallows, 2 Chocolate covered Heart Marshmallow Dippers, and 2 Peanut Butter Butterscotch Chipper cookies all in a cute Coffee Mug (that I found at the Dollar Store for $1) and wrapped it up in cello for each of the kiddos teachers today.  Kylee ended up getting a Bad Weather Day today so she didn't get to take hers to her teacher yet, but Clancy had to go to school (because I had to go to work) and his teachers loved theirs!
I had enough cocoa and dippers for a few more treats, so I wrapped them up too, and surprised a few of my coworkers!
