Seriously Sweet

I have some seriously sweet and very creative family members.  My mom and sisters are all so thoughtful and do the cutest things.  I usually feel like I'm the least thoughtful and am so lucky to have these guys.

Katie made all of us the cutest Valentine's day bunting.  I loved it so much I still haven't taken it down.


Every year my mom makes us darling Valentine packages.  She has never missed a year and it is always so fun to see what she packages up for us.  This year she had assorted candies all wrapped up, a cute book and a mini little toy for Asher.

Over the weekend I heard Elise talking about homemade valentines she made for Mike, her friend on a mission, and Joe on his mission.  Miles heard her talking about it and said he forgot to get her a valentine.  He ran upstairs and got her the friendship bracelet he had been working on.  It was so sweet to see that he is learning to be thoughtful and giving too!

And then just yesterday I got the most fun package in the mail from Tierra.  The first thing I opened was a little envelope, and this is what it said:


Then inside the box:


All of these tiny little cute packages of yellow and orange things.  Sunshine in a box!

starburst, juicy fruit, crystal light, reese's, dots, sugar sprinkles

m&ms, cough drops, crayons, gobstoppers, goldfish

So cute and so fun!
