A little L-O-V-E

Valentines for friends - heart shaped candy cane suckers


Corbin's Valentine note to Cody (they can send them at school and they get delivered to their class):
"I love you Cody!  Your an awesome little brother!  I hope you have a great day.  Try to stay on green!  I hope you win something like the dipndots maker! I love you.  Have a great day. Love, Corbin"
(the 'stay on green' is referring to the warning cards they get when they are disruptive or having a hard time behaving. It goes green, yellow and then red.  The Dippin Dots Maker was one of the prizes for White Ribbon Week.)

Valentine's Day dinner at our house: heart shaped jello jigglers, pink mashed potatoes and individual heart shaped mini meatloaves.  It was a hit!


My cousin and his new wife coming out of the Idaho Falls LDS Temple a few days after V-day.  I was so happy to get to make a quick trip up there all by myself to see aunts and uncles and cousins and second cousins!  I so love my family!

And a cute story about young love . . .

The other day, Corbin had a friend, who is a girl, over and when I went up to check on them, I noticed that Corbin had changed his clothes, to church clothes no less, and he was in my bathroom combing his hair.  I hear Breanna say, "Can I come out now?"  She was in the throne room.  I quietly and firmly whispered, "Corbin!  What are you doing?"  Corbin:  "I'm grooming"  Me: What?!  Corbin (pushing me out into the hall) whispered, "I'm going to ask her to be my Valentine", with an eyebrow raise and a nod.  What could I do then?  Yep, I'm smiling just thinking about it.
