14 days of {love} 2015

It's that time of year again...for my 14 days of {love}!  

I have done this for two years now and the kids love it so much, I can't think about stopping it now.  It really is not about spending a lot of time or money {my list of things to buy for these days is pretty short!}, but just celebrating Valentine's Day & love a little longer!

You can see what we did in 2013 & 2014 too!

My 14 days of {love) is simply a small activity to do with the kiddos each day from February 1-14.  We don't fit in a lot of crafting in our everyday, so this simply helps make spending time together more intentional {my one little word of the year}!  I put the note and the supplies {the ones that will fit} in their little mailboxes every morning and we do the activity when we have time in our day, which usually means after school.

I was lazy simplified my Valentine decorations this year to one table top...we're calling it good!

Here is this year's list:
