Books in Bed

So I am really going to get going on this blog and post more idea's.

For Valentines day this year we planned a quick last minute date. We just had our forth baby at the end of January so our thoughts have been focused a lot on her.

So for a quick last minute date....
We went to the library and picked out some children's picture books brought them home and set up a little blanket with pillows on the floor ( a snuggle spot ) to read the stories to each other. You could also read them in bed together like "bed time" stories and make it even more fun with the lights off and a flash light. We got some fun treats to eat that would work well for the occasion, like nuts, grapes, chocolate kisses (things you could eat in bed and not make a mess). And of course with it being Valentines day we had to open a bottle of bubbly and read our special valentines love letters to each other.

We ended with a little wrestling on the floor in our blankets. (light wrestling, remember I just had a baby :) It was a lot of fun.

Thanks for the Valentine memory babe!
