Happy Valentine's Day!
Valentine's is a fun Holiday in our house. No crazy expensive gifts, just fun wacky stuff and a lot of love.
Growing up I always looked forward to Valentine's Day breakfast. In my house Cherrio's and Puffed Rice where a staple. Valentine's day brought mini cinnamon doughnuts. I loved those things and my mother knew it.
So here at I Miei Due Bambini we are starting our own Valentine's tradition. Red Velvet Cupcakes...for breakfast. How fun is that.
Here's the cupcakes plus a few of the mini-cakes we made for Francesco's class.
Here is a photo of all the loot. The balloon was really for the boys to play with, the flowers were for Momma and the card was just as big as it looks. It was so much fun to open the huge card with Francesco's help. When I brought the cupcakes out we all had to sing Happy Birthday...not sure to who but we sang...since we had cake.
One lonely cupcake, I really should have taken a picture after it was bitten into so you could see just how red they were.
I took this shot out our back door this morning. When I showed it to Michael he said it was a Valentine's Sky. So that's what I am calling this photo.
We had a nice day here for Valentine's, I hope all the rest of you did as well. "Felice giorno di San Valentino"
