L.O.V.E.

I saw this idea last year on Studio 5, and tucked it away inside my little head for a time when Max would be handing out Valentine's. This was such the year. Instead of going to church on Sunday, we stayed home and started with a little photo session... (okay, we weren't ditching. RSV is on the rampage in our neighborhood. Luke was sick and Max was just getting over the crud. Didn't want to chance it.)
This seemed to be the winner so we did a little editing.
(too bad I don't have a better camera and photoshop.
I realize it looks a little armature, which I am.)
Just happen to have a heart shape hole punch. Lollipops were 5/$1. Love that.
I liked them. Sunday evening Max decorated his Box.
It was a full day of menu planning & prep for my very special Valentine.
Wisconsin Cauliflower Soup, Smoked Cheddar & Provolone Pannini's w/ cracked pepper Turkey & Ham, Fried Avocados with Ranch Salsa Dip, green salad, Turtle Brownies
Add a few pretty tablecloths, rose petals, candlelight...
Wha-Lah! Love is in the air.
note: 1st family candlelight dinner was a big hit with the boys.
