We had an an extra special Valentine's Day this year!
February 13th:
The kids made their own valentine boxes. Emmett helped make the puppy on Nate's box!
What brotherly love! Nate passed out Paw Patrol valentines, and Emmett passed out mustache and zombie valentine's this year!
I feel blessed beyond measure when I look at this photo!
Puppy love!
For breakfast the kids ate heart shaped Kashi cereal, pears, and a yogurt smoothie with a fun straw!
Graphing candy hearts...
For lunch we ate heart shaped grilled cheese sandwiches, strawberries, tomato soup, and a Baby Bel cheese with heart punched out of it.
Building with toothpicks and heart shaped marshmallows. I should have taken a photo of Nate when he stuffed more marshmallows than I can count in his mouth!
Cupcakes and X and O pretzels for snack!
Nate LOVES playing Tic-Tac-Toe!
Making a heart with his hands...
Look at that smile! What a handsome guy!
Free art with Valentine's art supplies! Nate took so much time making his art. I thought he was making a sweet valentine for someone special, but when I asked him what it was he replied with "a stinky sock!" He always makes me laugh!
My love bug!!!!
Once again...He is such a clown!
Emmett tied all the balloons to his his light saber and made a bouquet!
This is Emmett's valentine holder that he made at school. It was a house!
February 14th:
We went to the MOA with close friends! I was so excited to celebrate Valentine's Day with the kids! They are so special to us!!!
The guys took Autumn and Emmett on the big rides, and I took Nate and Kallie on the little rides.
I didn't snap a photo of this, but Kallie convinced Nate to go on the swings for the first time. He was so scared, but ended up LOVING it. Kallie felt so proud that she had helped him to be brave!
I couldn't resist! (It is just a malt, not coffee.)
At the end the kids met up and went on one last ride together. I absolutely LOVE this photo!!!!! These kids are bestest of friends!!!! This photo just illustrates their friendship and their innocence at this age! It doesn't get any better than this...
After the mall we headed back to Barb and Jason's where Katie and Barb prepared a delicious lasagna dinner for all of us! It was such a fun night! We ate great food, the kids played, and the adults played Pictionary! We shared many, many laughs!!!
The guys...
The gals...
The goofy kids...
