IT'S VALENTINES DAY!

Last night Jeff, Lindsay and Sam all came home. Jeff went through Sauk Rapids-Rice so he could support his brother at his basketball game. What a brother! Nick had his best games ever! Sam and Lindsay made a quick pit stop here and left early this morning for Minneapolis. Our family has always enjoyed Valentines Day. When the kids were in elementary school a special balloon or gift would arrive for them at school and Lindsay and I liked to cook for the guys or maybe even fondue in the evening. So, last night after everyone was in bed I left each of our children and Sam too a little valentine treat with a $10 bill attached to it. I refused to spend $4.00 on a card for each of them so we created our own simple card. Sam and Lindsay took theirs with before I grabbed a picture. Sam decided we needed a Valentine too so the last two pictures are what we found when we woke up!

Wow, last of the big spenders, this son-in-law!

Very cute. And I totally agree about the price of cards. Just to be thrown away?

Happy Valentine's day!

I am laughing out loud at Sam's card. :)
We do the same at our house, but Emily is our only card maker left now. :)
