Valentines!

This Valentines was so great this year! First we celebrated at my cousin Michelle's house. She is a stay-at-home teacher. That is, she use to teach, but now stays how with her little munchkin. She is so creative and planned all kinds of fun things for the kids. They decorated cookies, made valentine crafts, made valentines and had a yummy lunch. Thank you Aunt Shell!

Then all the kiddos got to watch a movie. Here is Riley all ready for the show!

And baby Allen jumped right up in the chair.

He is serious about this movie watching!

Thanks Aunt Shell for a fun day!

Then Mia and Eli had their Valentine parties at school.

They are so cute together.

They really do love each other, even with all that fighting they do.

Brayden said "You better not put this on facebook".

So, I didn't, I put it on my blog instead.

They crack me up with the things they say!

Playing games!

Again, I did not put this on facebook as requested. Just my blog.

For our February Wee Get Together we had a Valentine cookie exchange. It was so much fun. We all brought our favorite cookies and exchanged them so we all left with a plate full of different yummy cookies. Then all the kids decorated sugar cookies for the police department.

Madison trying out one of the cookies. Don't worry we were very careful to make sure the kids did not lick any icing. After they decorated the cookies for the police officer, they got to make one for themselves.

Mia's little friend, Raygen. Such a sweet, sweet little girl.

Just like her mommy and daddy.

All our yummy cookies!

These were the cookies for the police department.

The kids even decorated a card for them.

All the kids ready to go make their delivery.

Yes, we are in walking distance of the police department. So we just walked right over.

We wanted to let them know we loved them and appreciate all they do for us and our community!

Brayden even got to shake her hand.

It was a great month of love!
