Valentines Cards, Boxes and Parties

We have had a a fun few days with Valentines.
First we made the kids valentines cards. We decided to go with the handmade cards this year instead of the store bought ones.

Here are Chloe's. I think they turned out so cute and so did her teacher apparently-she told me when I got there that she had been around to show them to all the other teachers (thanks Taryn for the idea)

Chloe with her butterfly box and all her candy. She was so excited for her valentines party that she actually got up and got ready without me having to fight her once. She even set the table and got breakfast out for everyone. Ha

Here are Tanner's cards. AVATAR! We taped an almond joy to the back-the only blue candy we could think of. (thanks Brenda for the help in photoshop.) This picture is a little blury but the actual cards were great and clear as could be.

Here is Tanner's box the robot from Avatar! Landon helped him make it. It turned out pretty cool. I helped in Tanner's class so I heard lots of comments from his classmate on how cool his box was. I also asked his friend who came home with us who was handing out the best Valentines and he said "Tanner".

The kids both had a fun time at their parties.

Then for the valentines from Mom and Dad one day early. A book for Tanner-he was so excited due to the fact he was like 50 something on the library waiting list and a new Hannah Montana CD for Chloe-she has been jamming out to it all day. I love how they are both so different and get so excited over there own type of fun.
