Happy Saint Valentine's Day!!

(you can find these funny Catholic Valentines at A Blog for my Mom)

Happy feast of Saint Valentine's Day!!  

We did most of our celebrating last week, as our homeschooling group threw a Valentine's Day party a few days before the actual feast.  It was great fun for us all!!

Fone and Mario are now "too old" to take part in the Valentine's card trading, but they still came along to hang out with their buddies.  Melody, Ariel, Max, Pookey and Rose all were thrilled to take part in both the Valentine card trading and all the games/activities.  Here's a look at them with their decorated boxes and the Valentine's they chose...

Our homeschooling party was great fun and had so many games/activities for the kids to play and enjoy...
  • Read a story about the life of St Valentine
  • Pin the kiss on the frog
  • Hopscotch
  • Coloring 
  • Crafts
  • Bean bag toss
  • Throwing through the hoop game
  • Valentine card trading


This was day 2 of Skirting it up for Lent...
(so far both Ariel and Rose want to take part too and wear skirts with me)
