In the absence of school parties, we usually have little family Valentine's party every year. We used to be really fancy about it and have our party in the dining room with china, crystal and the like, but then William George became, well, ALL BOY, and we made things a little more boy friendly.
We had a play date with some special friends about a month ago, and their mom asked me about the party. Apparently Lauren had invited them to our party, and I had to explain that it's a pretty simple affair. Of course, they were invited (the more the merry!), but managing expectations was key. Closer to Valentine's, we exchanged a few texts and made the most basic of plans. Our group of six ate, made some crafts and then played upstairs.
I'm loving that our simple tradition continues to be a hit.
Our sweet friends are not shown due to privacy/courtesy.
