sweet Valentine

pink heart shaped pancakes

Kinda nice to have Valentine's Day fall on a 3 day weekend this year.  Combine that with no snow in Tahoe, and we had no desire to head out of town.  But we celebrated in style at home!

the kids each got a book for Valentine's Day -- with an audio CD attached, they are loving listening to books on CD

but maybe the cards were more of the favorite gift?

and maybe we let them have a few M&M's after breakfast….

we got some new furniture delivered that morning, and the kids were more than excited to watch the truck

 A few days earlier, Kaitlyn had a party at Stepping Stones -- with cupcake decorating and passing out Valentines to the other kids.  Super cute!  And Ryan had his party at school on Friday.  He was MORE than excited to hand out his Spider Man Valentines this year -- he wrote his classmates' names on each and every one.

Auntie Dana threw a special little Valentine Party for the kiddos on the 14th.  Complete with arts and crafts, heart shaped pizzas, and lots of running around.  They had a blast Dana!  Thank you!  (Eddy and I got to escape and take a long bike ride in the glorious 70 degree weather, a great treat for us too!)

We all went for Frozen Yogurt after the party...

good til the last drop 

I love these two!
