February Fun

Emily and Leslie started another swim class at the YMCA at the beginning of this month. Abby and Caleb look at books, color, and play on this dragon slide while we wait for them to finish. I'm glad they are good friends.

The weather was so nice at the beginning of February. I took the kids to the park and they rode their bikes outside. I kept saying, "This winter has been so mild!"

Then on February 12 we got 9 inches of snow!

We made snow trenches and tunnels. We finally got our snowstorm!

Everyone was so happy...except for Caleb! 

Emily and Leslie didn't get to bring in valentines for their classmates this year because of Covid. We decided to have our own little party at home on Friday. We bought a yummy heart shaped pizza from Papa John's for dinner.

I helped the kids make a Valentine craft. Can you tell which one is Caleb's??

We made valentine boxes and gave each other valentines. Then we played a valentine matching game and watched "Cinderella". It turned out to be a pretty fun Valentine's Day!

On Saturday Greg and I celebrated Valentine's Day. We put on a movie for the kids and had a nice dinner date together at home. He made us a delicious chicken cordon bleu dinner. He was nice enough to watch a Hallmark movie with me too. What a guy!

On Monday we made heart shaped sugar cookies. All of our kids love helping Greg bake. He is such a patient dad!

I think this is such a cute sisters picture. Can you believe that I bought those 3 dresses for $14!! Sisters make the best friends!

Caleb is only 2.5 years old, but says he is done with naps. He says he hates naps! Every once in a while I find him on the couch like this, typically right before dinner! He is so precious!

Me with my people (Emily was at school).

One night before I went to bed, I found this little note on my bedroom door. It was written in Emily's handwriting. I thought she was trying to tell me something, so they next day I asked her about it. Turns out it was for one of her school assignments. I decided to keep it on my door because it's a good reminder.

On Saturday we took our kids to a trampoline park. They had a blast!

Even THIS guy had a great time!

Morning snuggles are the best!
