Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine's Day and is with someone you love.

The kids have enjoyed their week of Valentine festivities.  They had a trip to Target to pick out their Valentine cards.  Keenan picked out Pooh for his friends at school and Bailey picked out Princess and Spiderman (she did not think the boys would like princess cards.) for her school friends.  Bailey sat at the table ALL day and worked on her cards, writing each name.  I would spell them for her and she would write.  LONG PROCESS!!  But she did it with such a happy heart.  And today, Keenan was all about giving kisses.  It was so cute. He just started giving Bailey and I kisses.  It got out of hand a little so I even had to say "Go kiss Elmo" or "Ok, I think that's enough kisses."  It should be interesting when he is 16!  

Bailey had her school party today.  We did several crafts and had some yummy snacks.  She passed out all her cards and I raided her treat bag during nap time. Don't tell!!!  And whatever happened to giving just cards?  Now it is all about treats.  I would love to be a dentist in this town.  But like I said I enjoyed the treats too.  Keenan had a cold yesterday so he missed his Valentine's party.  I was sad that he would not get to enjoy little cupcakes with his friends.  

Sending hugs and kisses your way.

Happy Birthday Dad!

This is my dad and today is his birthday!  Dad, we hope you have a wonderful day and hope to see you soon.  Thanks for encouraging me through out my life.  

We love you!

Time for some new pictures of PaPa and the kids.

Happy Birthday.

A Fun Friday

Last Friday was a full day.  It started off saying bye to my mom.  There were lots of tears.  It was such a blessing to have her here and to be able to take care of her.  God taught me so much through the 7 weeks that she was here.  He is always faithful.  It is amazing how He turns something that could be stressful into a blessing.  We had lots of tears and laughs while she was here.  As much as we were all ready to get back to our normal routines, it was hard saying goodbye.  

So of course my pictures are out of order.  Why did Blogger have to get confusing. Don't they know that moms blog late at night and our brains are not functioning after taking care of 2 little ones all day.  Don't they know that this is our outlet and it would be much better to make it easy for us.  Oh yea...back to our Friday.  And please just deal with my out of order pictures.

This is the side of Keenan I am seeing the most these days.  His latest little "game" is running from me when I call him.  I hear that it is a boy thing but it is not funny in a restaurant.  I was in a full sprint today chasing him in a restaurant.  Scott took him out of the highchair for us to get ready to leave and he takes off.  And I mean takes off.  So we have some lessons to learn in our future....near future that is.

And Big Sis loving the slide.  Who would have thought?  I can remember the day when she would not even think about getting on the slide.  I am loving it!

Ok, these should have come before the park pics.  The kids had an art show at school.  It is really cute.  The school sets up tables in the gym and display the kids artwork.  So this picture is Keenan's little hands made into a snowflake.  What a cute idea.  He was so proud.

Ok, like I said..the pics are all out of order.  

Can you say peek-a-boo. Guess who?

Back to the Art Show....This was Bailey's artwork.  She had painted mittens, made a big snowman out of paper plates, and lots of other fun things.  

It was a fun full Friday.  Hope your week is going well.
