Love letters

I love the dollar spot at Target. I especially love their holiday stuff. That's why I bought these little mailboxes a year or so ago. I never knew what to do with them really, but they were cute and I thought I'd use them on valentines day for something, but never did.

So, my sister-in-law was using hers to write letters to her kids every day in February until Valentines day and I thought that was a fantabulous idea!

The girls LOVED being able to decorate their own mail boxes with loads of stickers, and I loved being able to use my new silhouette cutter to cut out vinyl for the sides. It was fun, and I hadn't used it yet, so this was a good time to try it out.

I cut out each of the girls names for their own mailboxes...so cute!





Decorating it them took a nice long while, and the girls love how they turned out! I love my little Lexie, who decided she didn't like it for some reason and tore them all off. So, it took even longer to do it all again, fun times!


Halli went crazy, then found two more mailboxes I had bought a long time ago, and decorated them for me and Kevin too.


Not to leave my little man out, here's JJ looking HUGE next to his little basketball. I love this little man, even if he is sick and not sleeping right now. He's still adorable.


Halli is obsessed with these mailboxes, and wants to stay up late every night writing notes. I love her and her letter writing self!:)

I am laughing out loud as I read about Halli b/c can you guess who is doing the same thing?? Oh, yes, Kylie is LOVING this mailbox thing and definitely writing/coloring way more then just one note a day. :) Those two really are a lot alike.

Cute! I just saw those tonight and wanted to get them but had no idea what to do with them! :)

Do you like your Sihloutte? (sp?) I really want one. I always see little projects I would love to do but don't have the stuff I need!

That is such a clever idea with the mailboxes. I love Halli's letters too and have kept all my favorite that she has written me and Eric. I can't believe how BIG JJ looks next to the basketball. He is growing way too fast.
Love the later pictures of Peyton. She really is such a Diva! Although I can't decide if LaNea will follow her footsteps or Lexie's of getting into just about everything. :)
