Friday Favorites

Happy Friday, Friends!  I hope you've had a good, love filled week.  It was a good one here.  

Did you catch my blog posts this week?

Little Love Yous - this was so. much. fun.

Happy Valentine's Day Treat Tray - my kids loved this treat!

Coffee Chat - come chat - I need your help.


Now on to my favorite moments of the week:

1 // Happy Valentine's Day.  We had a fun holiday week.  The kids got their favorites - candy and Squishmallows.  They wore festive outfits and I made holiday treats for them.


2 // Heart Pizza

We started getting heart shaped pizza's on Valentine's Day long before we were parents.  It's been fun to carry on this tradition with the kids.  It works for poor grad students and families with kids.  We did fancy drinks, place cards and a festive table.  I loved it and the kids appreciated the extra fancy table.  Penny loved the fancy table and made herself the centerpiece after dinner.


3 // Valentine's Day at School

Fletcher picked out the perfect pinata for his valentine box and came home with cute valentine's from his first grade buddies.

His valentines - fish ring toss games and fun dips were so cute!  He wrote his name on all of his valentines so fast this year.  He's really growing up!


4 // Valentine Play Date

We had friends over for a valentine get together.  It was fun for everyone!

5 // Jordan Bakery Box - it was a busy baking week here!  Holiday cookies are my favorite.  I did loads of cookies, chocolate dipped pretzels and school spirit cookies.  Yum!  I set a goal for myself for the month of February and I've already hit it.  Yay!

6 // Early Morning Valentines

The kids woke up early on Valentine's Day and were really excited to get a few little surprises.  If your kids love Squishmallows, you'll have to get them some collectors cards.  They are so cute.  My kids love collecting and trading them. Here's my affiliate link:

 


7 // Cutest sidekick.  Spending my days with him is my favorite.

8 // School valentines.  Olive's class did a neat project for Valentine's Day.  She enjoyed it, but totally missed the class parties of her younger years.

9 // When your valentine knows your favorite colors and ignores all the pink and red.  This bouquet has looked so pretty on my counter all week.

10 // When you're the baby and you say COZY - people jump to make you cozy.  Olive and Fletcher love taking care of him.

11 // Crafty girl.  Olive adores these tiny polka-dot mushrooms.  She got creative this week and decided to make her own dangly earrings.  She was so proud to debut them at school this week.  It was my favorite thing to see her create something unique that she loved.


12 // You know my love for rainbows... this week has been extra sunny which meant lots of rainbow reflections throughout the house.  I don't know exactly what makes them, but we LOVE spotting them and being reminded of God's promises.


13 // Leo got to hang out with Mimi & Papaw this week which is his favorite.

14 // We hosted an impromptu Super Bowl party.  I made all of our favorite game day food and the weather was nice enough to make some s'mores.



15 // Get outside!  We played outside a lot this week.  Leo rides in circles and yells I'M FAST.  Then we went on a walk right after it rained and found the craziest crawdad strolling down the road.  Leo LOVED it.



I hope you have a wonderful weekend!  My crew has a long 3 day weekend (hooray!!) and I'll see you back here on Tuesday.
