Tea Time Tuesday Valentine Edition

Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, and we are celebrating a little early with Tea Time Tuesday Valentine Edition! I just love this time of year because Julia and I can bring out all the girly stuff, but I do try not to go to crazy since the boys outnumber the girls in our house. 

Featured Poem

Love’s Philosophy by Percy Bysshe Shelley

The fountains mingle with the river 

   And the rivers with the ocean, 

The winds of heaven mix for ever 

   With a sweet emotion; 

To read the rest of this beautiful poem head on over to Poetry Foundation. I think this poem was more for me than the children. I think it is absolutely beautiful, and wanted to share it with all of you.

 

Our Table

This week I wanted to dress up the table a little bit, but I didn’t want to spend a lot of money to get a new tablecloth or runner… So I decided to use some left over crepe paper from our Tea Time Tuesday Back to School Edition photo wall. I just put a small piece of tape on each end of the table to keep the crepe paper in place. I love how it turned out!

For a special treat we made our own chocolate covered strawberries and Oreos. I’m not going to lie… I ate way too many of these cookies and now have a major stomach ache… Totally worth it!

Since we had so many sweet treats already, and it is not quite Valentine’s Day, I am making my kiddos wait to see what is in their giftbags until tomorrow! Haha, mean mom here. Jack is going crazy not knowing what is in his bag.

Thank you for joining us for Tea Time Tuesday Valentine Edition…
