Happy Friday, y’all! It’s been a busy week this week, but I’ve spent lots of time connecting with others – volunteering at the kids’ school, lunching with old coworkers, and spending time outside – and I’m feeling quite refreshed and excited for the weekend! Since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and since I already shared a couple of other Valentine’s Day related posts this week, I thought I’d just keep the theme going with some Valentine’s Day faves!
O N E – Home Décor
I bought this garland from
the one and only Target this year and it has been such a fun edition to our
mantle. The wood beading detail makes it
more substantial than most other garlands and the warm wood tones give it such
a rich look.
I also bought this table runner because one, it’s pink, two, it’s covered in hearts, and three, it has
ruffles. It’s the perfect size for our
kitchen table and I like that I am able to use it without having to put away
any of our everyday decorations to accommodate it.
T W O – Ladies Clothes
I absolutely love this sweater on
Amazon. It comes in lots of other color
combos, too. Just precious.
T H R E E – Kids Clothes
Target is killing it in the
little girls section right now (I mean, when aren’t they?) and there are so
many cute Valentine’s Day options. Give
them all to us!!
This multi-hearts dress is the perfect comfy play dress.
Jacob’s at the age where he’s
probably not too interested in wearing anything Valentines-y (yes, I made up
that word), but there are a few options that he wouldn't mind wearing.
This Heart Breaker tee is so cute!
F O U R – Gifts Ideas
We don’t go overboard for
V-Day, but I do like to get a card + a little something for each of the
kids. We are a big LEGO family, and they
have the cutest sets that are perfect to give as Valentine’s Day gifts.
There's a Valentine's Day bumblebee...
A Valentine's Day bear...
Puzzles and fun plates and
cups also make fun gifts.
For the man or lady in your
life, how perfect is this scratch-off bucket list or list of dates to go on? Something fun for y'all to do together as a couple!
I’m also a big fan of mugs,
and there are definitely some cute ones that would make great gifts for pretty
much anyone.

F I V E – Valentine’s Day Cards
I’m going to go ahead and
give the award for best store-bought Valentine’s Day cards to these – Mad Libs cards + pencils! Each kid gets a card
with it’s own Mad Libs message to fill out and it comes with a cute pencil that
they can keep. It’s fun, it’s
educational, and it comes with something they’ll use every day. The best part? They come 16 to a box and they are only $3.50! Jacob wanted to give every third-grader a
card this year (46 kids total) and we were able to get enough for both third
grade classes for just over $10.
And if your child is obsessed with Frozen 2 as Olivia is, be sure to check out these Frozen 2 Valentines! Each card comes with a sparkly tattoo so they're extra fun! Only $2.50 per box.
