There is lots to do in the Lower Mainland this weekend to make your Valentine's Day extra sweet.

But no Valentine's Day is complete without cards for your child's classmates.  Courtesy of the very talented Robin Mitchell Cranfield, you can find Free Printable Valentines featuring the beloved Windy and Auggie, on her blog.  A great addition to the paper-bag Valentine mailbox come Tuesday.
