We checked out a book from the library called "One Zillion Valentines" about two guys named Marvin and Melvin who made a zillion valentines and passed them out to everyone in their city. Then their whole city felt happy and loved!
We really liked the book, and the idea of making valentines for everyone in our city, so we invited all the moms in our ward over with their kiddos to make one zillion valentines! It was SO much fun! 
Between the 22 moms and 35 kids that came to work in our valentines sweat shop, we managed to make 75 valentines, which is pretty close to a zillion. (We would've made more, but I provided a lunch break, and our productivity declined after that. We moms got to talking while all the kids ran in circles in the grass.) Still, 75 is a pretty impressive number of Valentines!
Here are a few of the ones we still have left. The rest have been passed out to sweet little ladies from the ward and random people in our neighborhood. I think Marvin and Melvin would be proud!

I LOVE it! I wish we could have come. What a great idea for a party. I'm now looking for all kinds of excuses to have parties so I'll have to add that to my list.
