Don't these cowboy cupids look cute?

Here's the card I made for Brazos to give his friends at Mother's Day Out.  I used the same tractor graphic from his birthday party theme last year.

Then I converted it to this cute little bag topper and packaged the card and some other goodies in with it.  

Then I couldn't just let that be enough.  I had to get him this shirt to wear to his school party.

Pecos needed cards for his class party too and he requested Legos so I made this one for him.

And took this picture for the back:

He wanted to give out candy in addition to his card so I found these Lego brick candy pieces, made him a bag topper and packaged them up for his party.

Now, if that wasn't enough, we were invited to a kids Valentine party in Fredericksburg.  I didn't have enough of the original cards to distribute, plus some of the same kids would be there from the Mother's Day Out program so I made these "Hugs & Kisses from the River Boys" bag toppers and filled them with Hershey's hugs and kisses candy of course.

Happy Valentine's Day!

XOXOXOXO

Taking this picture was the last thing my two little cowboy cupids wanted to do this morning for me for Valentine's Day.  Pecos was so happy, can't you tell?  And Brazos had his eye on a certain Charolais kitty that happend to run across the yard at the exact moment I snapped this picture.

Hope you had a great Valentine's Day with the ones you love!

At a recent birthday party Brazos was putting the moves on Miss Desi.  Such a lady's man!



 

happy valentine-mardi-saints gras

February 16, 2010- With three major events/holidays falling nearly within a week of one another it is no wonder Pecos was a little confused. He wasn't sure if he should celebrate the Saints Superbowl victory, play Cupid for Valentine's day or revel for Mardi Gras. So he did all three and this is the result. Let me also point out that for a couple of months leading up to the Superbowl many of my friends here had been asking why my half-native Louisiana son did not have a Saints jersey. I too did not know the answer to this so I checked with my suppliers in Louisiana and this is the t-shirt they sent. At the time a kid-sized Drew Brees jersey was hard to come by in the frenzy of Saints mania.

But nonetheless, our main supplier- and New Orleans residents, Auntie Em & Uncle Kris- came through and sent one in late February. As soon as Pecos opened it he put it on and wore it for the rest of the day.That same night Casey came home from a week-long trip to New Mexico and delivered Pecos some roadside souvenir stand Indian artifacts. So Pecos had to put those on as well. This photo seems to have Pecos confused once again: he's not sure if he should be a NO Saint or a KC Chief...or a Mardi Gras Indian celebrating the Saints Superbowl win.

Feb 14, 2009- Happy Valentine's Day from the Kissing Cowboy! Pecos was having fun blowing his lip whistle and I just had to snap a photo of him to share with you for Valentine's Day. He had strep throat this week so maybe it is best you get a picture instead of a real kiss for V-day this year. Pucker up!!!
