Valentine's Day ~ Layton

Layton was so excited to participate in his very first Valentine party at school. 

Valentine's Day ~ Todd

Love his Valentine Box he created!

Thanks for the new books Mom and Dad

Valentine's Day ~ Reagan

Valentine's Day

Grandpa and Grandma sent all the kids a Valentine treat.

Thanks Grandpa and Grandma!

Reagan had so much fun getting her Valentine's done.  I would recite each classmate and she would then decide which valentine to give them.  She would say, "He's my bestfriend". 

Every Valentine received a heart sticker.

Mommy received this in the mail.

They were so good! Thanks to my Valentine!

Todd had to bring his own container.  He insisted on making one rather then letting mom go buy a cute bucket. 

Treats for Todd's teacher.

Treats for Reagan's teacher.

Reagan dressed up for her Valentine's day party.

Layton was excited all day.

Layton was able to take advantage of all that candy.

Daddy brought home gifts for everybody.  This balloon was bigger than Layton. 

Valentine's Day

Last night, I was told I was not allowed to come into the dining room because they were making me a Valentine's Day card.  Twenty minutes later, I was summoned into the room to observe their masterpiece.

Reagan added the foam stickers.

Todd added ALL the glue and pom poms and sequins.

Layton attempted to remove whatever he could.

Sometimes love can be messy.

  My littlest Valentine



Sweetheart's Dance

Friday Night we went to Todd's Sweetheart Dance at his school.  We had a GREAT time!

I guess Reagan needs to use the bathroom?

Little Posers

Reagan was a DANCING queen!

This is her friend Emma dancing right along with her. 

They danced the night away.

That little girl is trying to hold HIS hand so they can all join in a great big circle.

By the look on his face I bet you can guess how much he liked that. 

Later that night he told me he was never going to dance with a girl. 

I smiled and told him, "That's my boy!"

Oops!

On Monday I was all excited to start my week off right and work out!  Yahoo!  Well, as I was digging around in my drawers trying to find some of my workout clothes I stumbled upon my Valentines gift.  Adam will get here two days after Valentines Day so he decided to hide my gift in my lingerie/sports bra/old bathing suits drawer.  I am sure he thought I wouldn't be going in there.  To his surprise I actually worked out.  Sorry Adam!  It is totally the thought that counts!!!!

Sadly, since this whole snow/ice escapade I haven't worked out.  In fact, all I have eaten is carbs, carbs, and more carbs.  To top it off all I have done is sit, sit and more sitting.  I had chips and dip for dinner last night.  I had chips and salsa for lunch today.  Plus, we ate on all this delicious chocolate.

Valentine's Day

My snuggle bunnies

Adam woke me up to breakfast in bed. It was wonderful! I wish I would have taken a picture. This picture shows how we spent most of the morning. (thanks to 1:00 church) All you see is my arm. Sophie, our dog, is somewhere under the blankets too. Don't we look so comfy and cozy? Todd asked me, "Mommy will you be my Valentine?" I am the luckiest girl in the world!

Countdown to Valentine's Day #9

On day 9 we had to come up with a creative way to say, "I love You". I sent Adam 3 texts.

1. A picture of my eye


2. the word "LOVE"


3. A picture of me pointing to him

I think he liked it. He said it was very creative. Don't tell him I saw it months ago on the Love Actually blog.

Adam is taking Advanced Electrical right now. This is what he sent me and I LOVED IT!

He did tell me that the guy that sits behind him gave him a hard time over this.

14 Reasons Why I love You

This year I implemented a countdown to Valentine's day. On day 4 we were to tell each other 14 reasons why I love you. I sent Adam my list via text. They were each carefully thought out and I thought they were very sweet. Adam sent me four reasons via text and said I would get the rest later. As we were alone sitting at the dinner table he verbally went through the reasons counting down on his fingers. I don't know how many he recited because by the time he got to reason # 8 I didn't hear anything else.

REASON #8: You try to be neat and organized but you are NOT. I love that about you.

I just sat there with my mouth open. I think by the look on my face he felt he needed to say something. "The house is always clean! I just love that you try to be neat and organized but you're not."

I just want everyone to know that he is still alive.
