Mommy, Ministry, and more: Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is coming up!!! I love this holiday, okay I love all holidays. Forget about the whole this holiday was created by the greeting card companies blah, blah, blah! What a fun excuse to celebrate and spread God's love! I am super excited to spend a little extra time loving on my baby girl.

I haven't decided how to celebrate this holiday completely, I just want it to be fun. I wanted to share how we have celebrated this holiday in past, and some ideas, crafts and more I have for this year.

Not wanting to overdue it this holiday and keeping simple and basic; my husband and I decided to make gifts for each other.

One year he made me a picture frame with sweethearts glued on (I loved it), I made him and I matching shirts

Another year we went to a paint your own pottery place and made each other a bowl.

For a couple of years we worked together and made scrapbook pages from our wedding.

Last year was probably one of my favorites and a great inexpensive, fun, date night. Hey, you can even get the kids involved!!!

We each had $15 we had to buy the other person 3 things, one of which had to be edible. I think we also had a time limit, I can't remember. We went to our local mall, shopped at the same time but avoided each other. Person closest to $15 without going over got a massage later that night. We had done this date night once while we were dating, loved it then and decided to repeat it.
