I LOVE Valentine's Day!!!

We have some really fun Valentine traditions at our house....

First, about 2 weeks before Valentine's Day we make homemade Valentines for all family members living at home (we are not as creative for those who are gone!)  We clutter the kitchen counter with colored paper, stamps, stickers, markers, etc.

On Valentine's Day itself, we do a "knock and run."  You lay the Valentine card you made for a person on the floor where they can see it, then you knock on the wall until they see you, and then you run and hide.  They have to chase you and hug you!!!  Mom always leaves a small gift and some candy with her Valentines that she gives.

For dinner we have homemade pizza.  Yum!!!  We also have heart shaped brownies.

We all look forward to Valentine's Day!  It's one of our favorite holidays!!
