Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day was a busy one with the kids waking bright and early to gifts from Mommy & Daddy at the breakfast table. Tripp is away this week so he wished everyone his love with notes in cards.

The girls had their school parties last week and exchanged cards and treats (Abbie took silly bands and Daisy pencils) with their friends. Cute Meg from Olliegraphic designed both girls cards as well as the one we delivered to our friends on Monday pictured above and in the photo below. I stayed up way too late Saturday and Sunday making Valentine gifts for our friends...but it only comes once a year, right? We delivered the gifts throughout the day and evening.
The kids received stickers from Aunt Sue the week before that they already used. Grandma Sandy always sends socks to our family. The girls wore theirs to their parties the week before but I wore mine on Monday. Nate and Ryan dropped up fun treats the week before and Papa came by Sunday night with surprises. So by the time Monday rolled around, I warned the kids that we had already been showered with love and not to expect anything more. But we still were blessed with treats from a few friends and cute mouse toys from Aunt Sam.
Abbie & Daisy sported their heart knee leggings that I made. This project could have been a total disaster but they turned out alright. The girls liked them at least...phew.
All in all, a great day. Wish Daddy was home but you can't have everything now can you?
