Nothing says Happy Valentine's Day like a mustache

Josh has a thing for mustaches. Whenever we go to Winco he likes to use his quarters to purchase these little pieces of facial hair that only stick for about 5 wearings. So, this year as we talked about what to get his friends for Valentines, it quickly became apparent it was a no brainer, mustaches. Of course girls can't have mustaches (or at least they shouldn't) so he decided on rings for the girls.

We had to prepare for Valentine's day in advance because I knew we'd have to make sure we got enough mustaches for all 8 boys in his class. We went to Party America thinking for sure we'd find a sheet of mustaches, but to our disappointment they only had Tom Selleck style for $3.95 a piece. No go. After looking online a bit I just decided we'd have to hit up the Winco toy machine. So, with $4 in quarters we retrieved 8 mustaches or... soul patches. Yep, there was a variety in their machines. A few days later Josh and I went out to gather the last of his supplies for his Valentines. Dave had already helped him pick out cards a couples weeks ago. So, then the assembly began.



The best part of assembling his Valentines was that he hand picked which boy would get each mustache/ soul patch. I laughed thinking about the boys wearing them. I really wish I could have gotten a picture of each one in their stache.

So, when it was all said and done, his Valentine's poppers were complete. I snapped a quick picture of one on our way to school.

In honor of Josh (& Alicia):

Happy Valentine's Mustache Day
