Happy St Valentine's Day everyone!!
Oh my goodness, so cute! Mary Hannah's response is awesome about "her angels" and Colette's answer about the chocolate chip cookies, she is 100% correct. I laughed at Jedi's love song choice - about how to pretend your girlfriend died. Kids are so funny.
ReplyDeleteI love your heart tree! we forgot to bake our heart cinnamon rolls -- thanks for the reminder; maybe tonight we'll fit it in! I love the interviews with your children. Salad -- how wonderful! your gift to your beloved is wonderful. Not sure I could think of 52 reasons -- ok, I bet i could. happy Feast of St. Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun celebration! I can already imagine little Sims scooting down the stairs feet first. The kids lists were great- this morning 10,000 reasons was playing in the car and my teenager was singing with all her heart, and I was, too! We all love that song.
ReplyDeleteYou two are such a beautiful couple- no wonder your kids are gorgeous!
You get SO MUCH done! Precious interviews of family love to treasure. Sending you our love. God bless!
ReplyDeleteI saw the post on pinterest too. They all came out very cute! You sure got busy this week too.
ReplyDeleteHappy St. Valentine to you and yours..
The interviews are adorable. They all had me smiling- especially if love was a food it would be salad! I am with Mary Hannah on that one, although the candy and chocolate chip cookies would work too.
ReplyDeleteI love that so many of your children's favorite love song is a song about God's love. They obviously know what this day is really about. :)
Happy Valentine's Day to your beautiful family.
I woke up so groggy that I couldn't remember how to wind the cinnamon rolls properly! So I just tinted the frosting and called it breakfast! Love the interviews!
ReplyDeleteLove! The interviews - what a fun thing to do, and I really love the card gift. Here you were yesterday saying how nothing was ready and planned for Lent but it looks to me like you had a full and beautiful day. :)
ReplyDeleteOMG, that was the sweetest thing ever!!! I have to do that with my kids next year. The pictures were beautiful and the snow is beautiful as well. Happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun activity to learn the creativity in your children's imaginations. I bet they enjoyed answering all the questions! You have much to be thankful for! Especially that beautiful snowy white landscape. God bless!
ReplyDeleteIf love were a song it would be Star Wars! Lol! Love these posts and love that heart tree.
ReplyDeleteLook at you love birds at the end!!! So sweet. And your new header pic...your home is so full of love, Jamie Jo! Thanks for being a continual inspiration to all of us!!! Yes, the beauty of love is that the more children you have the more your heart multiplies...not divides! Happy Weekend, Friend!
ReplyDeleteJust precious...Love the interview idea! Looks like a truly fun St. Valentine's Day filled with such joy. Thanks for all you share with your readers and friends here:)
ReplyDeletePerfect post. Your kiddos are so precious. I wish I was half as creative and fun as you are. Thank you for the inspiration. I am so jealous when I see the snow. I cried at those pictures. They were so beautiful, God gives us a fresh start with a clean white snow.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentines Day to you and your family.
