Happy Friday! Can you believe it’s already Friday? I feel like I blinked, then this week was over. We have had a bit warmer weather here too, so it’s been more tolerable to get through the day! Still frost on the ground every morning, but the sun is out and we’re up to a balmy 60 degrees.
We’re closing in on one of my most favorite holidays to get festive for my kids…VALENTINE’S DAY!
Let us walk winter out the door, and usher in spring! And gimme all the reds, pinks and hearts! Valentine’s has its touches all around the house right now. It makes me so happy to have bursts of vibrant color in my otherwise VERY neutral palette home!

As always, Trader Joe’s came through with the cutest fresh flowers…
Assorted pink, red and white hypericum berries. (I might have a slight obsession with berries).
One of my all-time favorites, pink tulips!
Wicker rattan ball vase fillers
Our warm and cozy library is now finished, so we’ve slowly been getting it set up and organized. I threw a few Valentine’s items in to make this room feel festive too…
Of course, there’s no better way to celebrate than donning a fun heart sweatshirt…
Heart sweatshirt (size XS, sale 20% off now)
Jersey heart sweatshirt (size S, sale 40% off now)
…and making festive Valentine’s recipes with and for my kiddos!
My kids were super pumped to make these cuuuuute mini heart waffles…
…and every Valentine’s breakfast needs heart-shaped bacon. 😍
Naiya was so excited when she realized her school formal-day socks had hearts on them!
She also quickly painted hearts on her own nails before school, using a toothpick. Love this girl’s creative detail!
This little guy has been begging me every day this week to go play basketball with him. So we’re off!

If you’re looking for a festive Valentine’s Day dessert, try my Vanilla Custard with Strawberries! Plus, you’ll find a paleo version of it as well.
Hope your family enjoys this last weekend leading up to Valentine’s Day! xoxo
