We have spent a lot of time outside in the snow this weekend, but due to the freezing cold temps I kind of prefer to be cozy and warm inside-
Making little hoot owls for valentine gifts.
Working on a post for the wonderful online publication of Rhythm of the Home.
Painting with cheerful colors to add some color to our black and white world that is outside our windows right now.
Admiring 8 amazing dishrags I received in the mail yesterday from my blogger friend Karen of Mimi-n-Moe’s Mom.
Working on ”our take” of conversation hearts. After the paint dries on the heart-shaped rocks we will write some loving words and phrases; the phrase ”text me” will NOT be included.
I hope you’re enjoying your weekend!
Here is Araina yesterday afternoon wiggling her first loose tooth-
She wiggled it and wiggled it and wiggled it……until……eventually, she pulled it out herself! Brave little lady, I was never able to do that as a kid!
Here she is after her shower last night, admiring her new look in the mirror-
HMPH! She looks a little older to me today- in a matter of a day. 
I’ve been blogging a little over a year now (Jan. 24 was the year date). Some of you have been with me since day 1, but for those of you that haven’t here’s a review of Valentine’s 2009.
Valentine pocket hearts- made from sweaters; made to stuff full of sweet goodies. Cute hanging on the door of your Valentine!
Valentine rosewater cookies- a yummy and refreshing cookie made with a splash of rosewater.
Valentine mushroom brooch- or make into a hair-clip for the little lady valentines.
Nature’s valentines- get outside and find the valentines that Mother Nature has left for you to discover.
