Making Valentines to Give

The boys recieved a package in the mail from Grandma and Grandpa Hutchinson. They were so thrilled!! Inside they found all kinds of goodies, including lollipops, their favorite candy!! Grandma sent some supplies to make valentines, like special hearts, doilies, and stickers. So we got some pictures developed and the boys put together valentines for all our extended family. They had a great time!


Grandma Hutchinson also sent supplies to make Valentine's Day treats to give away. So we made some Valentines' Day cupcakes. The boys did most of the work, with a little help and they were so excited doing it. Here is Cooper putting the paper liners in the muffin pan to get us all ready to pour the batter.
Cooper's turn to stir
Jaxton's turn to stir
Jaxton is spooning the batter into the cups. He actually did it all by himself and did a great job!

The finished product! Yay!
All wrapped up and ready to give away. Jaxton had a very hard time knowing that all these cupcakes would be given away. He just couldn't handle the fact that they would all be eaten and gone by other people. He wanted to make sure we saved some for us. Which we did. Unfortunately, I got sick that night and through the morning, so we cancelled our plans to deliver them to our friends around town afterall. But it sure was fun making them all together!
