Happy Valentine's Day!



Valentine's day is a favorite time for our family, and, this year was no exception.



The girls made paper Valentines and Valentine cookies,

 

and shared Valentine love and fun with Florence friends and family.


This year, we even shared a special, Valentine sky.




In true Italian style, a festival came to Florence during the week of Valentine's Day, bringing balloons, puppet shows, and...


ITALIAN CHOCOLATE! 

There were chocolate cell phones, and strawberries, duomos and coffee cups.




Chocolate pasta, chocolate lady bugs,
  
...chocolate locks and chocolate faucets!

Most exciting for us was watching this medievil flag core of Florence.



 




                                        Their costumes and performances were spectacular....


 

...helping to make this a Valentine's day to remember.


Happy Valentine's Day and lots of love to you!
