and now that the 5 lbs bag of gummi sharks arrived,
finn and i are officially ready to start working on his
valentine cards. {did you guess submarines?}
scoutie's valentine cards won't be homemade this year.
i was planning on doing some easy craft with him,
but then i came across adorable space-themed valentines
by meri meri and couldn't pass 'em up.
so this weekend we will not only be working on valentines,
but we will be making simple valentine treats too.
i came across a few easy ideas in the blogosphere and had to post.
all you need is a heart cookie cutter to make simple rice krispy treats
and brownies extra cute for valentine's day.
easy peasy as scoutie likes to say!

i only have time to squeeze in one of these projects this weekend
and since i received this pretty cake pop maker for christmas,
i have been anxious to test it out. cake pops will be my weekend project.
pink and white candy melts are standing by in the pantry,
along with several jars of sprinkles. this is where the boys will step in to help.
i make no promises they will be as pretty as the photo above,
but my hope is they will at least be tasty {and stay on the stick}.
i will report back after this weekend and maybe even share a photo.
wishing you a fabulous friday!
~ i almost forgot to record finn's accomplishment.
he participated in explorer's annual jog-a-thon yesterday.
students take up donations based on how many laps they run
to earn money for the school. this year finn ran 34 laps!
{i think he is ready for this year's st. patty's day run}.
