We have been busy at work on our 14 days of {love}. These activities really take very little of our time most days, but are still fun to be able to do together. I think Evan is the most excited by the mailboxes this year...it might be because he's always hoping their will be candy inside :). Each day there's a little card with the saying on it and some part of whatever we will do.
Here's a look at our first 4 days.
Day 1 of {love}:
"Your love is 'key' to my heart!"
We worked on making Minecraft key chains together.
Look at these cute kiddos in their church clothes!
Here's what supplies each kid had in their mailbox.
It was a little bit of a family project while watching the Super Bowl. Oh the mess of those little beads.
Our finished product: a creeper, a pig {yeah somehow the eyes got switched around on the left side}, and a wolf
Day 2 of {love}:
"A kiss might be 'mice'"
We made Hershey kisses mice. With of course a few extra kisses to eat. Bella was trying to help out on the eating part...
Our cute little mouse!
Her chocolate covered face gives her away ;).
Day 3 of {love}:
"I love you to pieces"
They were supposed to puff up tissue paper on a heart. We started that way, but then they decided it would be easier to glue on the tissue paper pieces flat down...oh well...they were still being crafty, right?
Day 4 of {love}:
"Your love warms my heart"
We made strawberry hot chocolate {I just added strawberry syrup to normal hot chocolate}. It was a busy day so it was nice to have something easy to do at the end of the day. It was extra great because we got a little bit of snow today.
I put some containers of Keurig hot chocolate in their mailboxes and they thought they were super special!
To be continued...
