A few things for President's Day

I made a few quick things you can use for President's Day if you're in the mood.  Nothing spectacular, but I thought I'd share anyway.



Here are two of links if you're looking to make some presidential head wear:

Love Quote Love Notes

Sweetheart's Week starts tomorrow!
As you know, I'm doing a game theme.
Here's my easy plan for my sweetheart, Brigham.

*A handwritten love note 
with favorite quotes about love that I found.
*A "game type" treat.
*A game to play together each night
...I'm just using games we already have.

You can use my Love Quote Love Note papers if you want. They aren't spectacular, but they work.
*I printed mine 2 per page so they aren't so big.

Guess Whooo Loves You?

I am excited to play this game. 
To make it even more fun, you need to go make one of these.
Here is mine:
Isn't he cute?

And here is the game. The descriptions are personal for my family, 
so I've included some blank cards if you want to personalize them.

You Were "Mint" to Be My Valentine

I haven't finished the girls Valentine's yet, but I wanted to show you the first step anyway.


Materials:
candy canes
An Oven at 235 F

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 235 F.
Place two candy canes into an overlapping heart shape on a cookie sheet/jellyroll pan.
Bake for 8 minutes. Keep an eye on them. Any more would have made mine bubble and change in appearance.
Take them out of the oven and pinch the tops of the candy canes together. Push the overlapping candy cane into the bottom one.
Let cool and remove from pan.

Place in a bag. 
Attach cute saying....Maybe "We should be Sweethearts" or anything with a cheesy "Mint" line.


Valentine's I-Spy

Time for more of my Sweethearts Games.

This one is for my oldest. She loves I-Spy games
so I took a few pictures of stuff around the house and used some photos we already had...
....the girls love pictures of themselves.

Then I made them into a photo book
because it was my lucky day
and there was a code for a FREE book!

But if there hadn't been, I would have just ordered 5x7 prints and laminated them. 
I wish I would have time to make more custom I-Spy pictures
but I think they'll like it anyway.

Here are my photos if you're interested in using them. They aren't that great but you're welcome to use them anyway.
