We just had a very fun family Valentines party. We celebrated with pizza, snacks and homemade Valentine boxes.
We started doing this years ago when we homeschooled. The one thing the children missed most about public school was the parties. So we decided to sort of replicate a school party at home with homemade Valentine boxes.
There were some especially creative boxes this year.
Gavin used a basketball with a slot cut in it.
Son in law John made a Bat Mobile.
Daughter in law Sheena made a very cute frog princess.
The grandchildren really had fun - they like playing with their cousins and glow sticks and of course they like the candy,
We just fill the boxes with little gifts and treats for each other.
I so loved those Valentine Mail boxes! Looks like everyone had a great time. JJ is looking like a boy child and not at all like the curly haired little babyish fellow he was. How they do grow!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! I'm keeping that in mind for our house next year. The kids are all so big and I love how they're all growing up together. Some of my best childhood memories are with my cousins.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic idea!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh Rhonda. This idea is just the sweetest thing and something I must do for my granddaughters next year. You're so clever! Mimi xxx
