Valentine's Day started with cinnamon rolls in the shape of hearts for my sweeties. Another "sweet" idea I found on Pinterest!
Followed by some sweet treats for everyone. I borrowed the candy bouquet idea off of my daughter Linn (pictured below) who made Aaron and Syd a giant candy bar bouquet last year. I used foam hearts to attach some mini candy bars onto it to make a variation of it. Okay, let's be honest, it doesn't look as nice as Linn's but I used some stuff around the house to make it and both bouquets cost me a whopping $3.00. How's that for being frugal?!

I made a special stick of dynamite for Mr. Dynamite himself, the Clintster. He's the bomb! Another idea from Pinterest that I thought was cute. It had three packs of Rolos candy in the middle.
I got some "sweetness" from my "sweetie" too. He knows I have a heart full of peanut butter and chocolate! ;o)
Aaron and Sydney shared their "homemade with love" Valentine cards with us. I am wondering if Clint even noticed that the heart Sydney made said "I love you Mom", no mention of Dad. Everyone in this family knows she is Daddy's little girl so I think he'll let her slide on that one. LOL! She loves him too. I am wondering if the little green heart is for me and the BIG red heart is really for him.
As if this wasn't enough, after lunch a GIGANTIC box of goodies for everyone arrived from my daughter Linn. This made our day for sure!
She planted a few "candy jokes" for me in the box. This is NOT "Brach's" candy corn! She knows better than to send me some lame "Zachary's" candy corn! :D That WAS the joke!
So all in all I'd say we had a really "sweet" day!
