One thing that you will notice on this blog, is all the magic that we add to every holiday.  Before we had kids, Valentine’s Day was insignificant and well just plain boring.  I knew we needed to jazz it up a bit.  So we began adding traditions like Valentine’s mailboxes and Love Buckets.  Next, we incorporated a fun themed dinner.  It started out as a simple heart theme but I could never settle with just that.  Probably because I felt that I had to add a little something extra to get my boys excited about it too.  The tradition of a themed Valentine’s dinner began.   All the hearts, roses, pinks, and reds should be enough of a theme for Valentine’s Day.  However, one year we added mustaches to the hearts for ‘I mustache you to be my Valentine’ and last year was Star Wars themed.  The boys really loved it.  Check out all the details of this year’s superhero Valentine’s breakfast below.  

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner.  Are you ready?  My husband and I typically go out the week before the big day because the restaurants are so crowded around that day.  Several years ago, we started a tradition of having a Valentine themed dinner for the kids.  The boys absolutely love it and look forward to it every year.  

Planning to start a fun festive Valentine’s dinner with your kids.  Keep scrolling for some good ideas including food and decorations.

There are baskets for Easter, stockings for Christmas, trick or treat bags for Halloween and Valentine’s just seemed like it was missing something.  What about Valentine’s Day??  So I scrolled the internet to find something, anything to fill that void.  I stopped scroll on love buckets.  The ones that I saw were just plain but a light bulb went off in my head.  Surprising I know.  I took the idea and ran with it.

If you are feeling the post Christmas blues and the next holiday is just not measuring up, then start a new tradition of Love Buckets for Valentine’s Day.

We are holiday junkies in our house.  Once the seasonal decor from one holiday comes down, the next goes up.  After my Christmas decorations were put away, I was ready to fill that void by setting out Valentine’s decorations.  Creating memories around each holiday is important in our house.  We do several traditions centered around Valentine’s Day including these cute DIY mailboxes. You can put love coupons, special treats, or anything that you want in the boxes. If you don’t have a Valentine’s Day tradition or would like to add one more then stick around for all the details below on creating your own mailboxes.
