That wig is hilarious. Korbin told me Ben dressed up as Michael Jackson!
The wig is awesome and Abby's dress is very cute. Gotta love extra candy from someone not eating sugar that month.
Ok, I officially ban myself from reading your blog after holidays. It makes my head hurt. I'm proud of myself if I get my kids out the door with Valentines for their class. I never think to do anything else.
That is an amazing valentine box!
I love Abby's blue teeth.
Is there a reason she scored breakfast in bed?
Ben's dress-up outfit is great.
I agree with Hillary!
No reason besides she has afternoon kindergarten. It was really lunch in bed. I had to make food anyway, so it was easy enough to shape it like hearts and let her eat in bed. 12 seconds of effort to make her feel special was worth it. :)
These are amazing things to do with our kids:) love the minion box! What did you make for the arms/hands and the legs/feet? Super cute. Thanks
ilovemac92, the arms are just made from a small cardboard tube (it think it was from wrapping paper) covered with yellow paper. The hands are made from black craft foam. We cut two for each hand and glued them together around the bottom of each arm. The legs are toilet paper tubes (cut to about an inch and a half long) covered with denim and the feet are made from really thin wood that my husband cut out on a scroll saw. Getting it to balance on the legs/feet was kind of tricky. If we were doing it again, I would probably skip that part and just have the minion sit on his bum. :)
