Beans, beans and MORE Beans!

This is what my kids are giving this year for Valentine's Day. Ann, my sister-in-law, came over last friday and this is what we whipped up. It took longer than we anticipated but look how cute they turned out! After all was said and done we made 90 of them.

We had the kids help fill the bags with beans and OH MY! Beans were everywhere! The kids were doing their best and also having fun. After a while my kids started throwing, what seemed like, handfuls of beans on the floor. I'm so glad they were having fun with cousins and also willing to help clean up, even if it was one bean at a time into the little bags!

Thanks Ann for the idea and fun time!

I love Ashley's little notes. Thanks so much for the extras. Turns out we had just enough and 3 left for the kids.
