Valentine's Day

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: it is so much fun to have holidays with little ones!! My inner child comes out and we have so much fun making decorations and fun foods together. Valentine’s Day was no exception. The girls enjoyed making Valentines for grandparents and cousins. I figured it wasn’t truly Valentine’s Day unless there were heart sugar cookies to decorate. So we baked a ton of yummy goodies, the girls drew to their hearts content, and I made some fun meals. For breakfast we had heart-shaped muffins. For lunch we had PB&G cut into hearts with cookie cutters. And for dinner we had Rachael Ray's Tomato, Basil and Cheese Baked Pasta (sooo good), lemonade with heart shaped ice cubes, heart shaped red jello, and parmesan broccoli all on pink plates with pink forks and pink cups. The girls even made a Valentine tablecloth out of butcher paper. So fun.

Here's my cuties and my hottie, anxious to eat.




Here's the ice cubes (the molds for these were super cheap at Target. Love it!). Don't you love the elegant tablecloth?
