Valentine Post #1

Happy New Year! I hope that 2010 is everything you need it to be!! As for this house we are in the throws of preparing for a visit from a close friend. It's amazing the things you let go, pile up to put away later and just generally forget about. The children had Christmas all over again when long forgotten toys suddenly reappeared. Unbelievably I also began work on Valentine cards.

I'm not a big valentine person. David and I usually exchange a small gift and a card so I'm not sure who these cards will make there way to. Anyway, here are three that I created this past New Year Holiday weekend.
