Valentine's Day Bliss

Valentines Dinner and Dance

Jeron and I had the rare opportunity to attend a dinner and dance for Valentines.  Our good friends the Hales own a Wedding rental company and because they do they get to go to Thanksgiving Pointe's Valentines dinner and dance.  This year they snagged 6 tickets and we were lucky enough to be selected  to go.  They craziest part of the night was that Jeron and I had never danced so this would officially be our first dance together.  Who would think in 15 years we actually have a 1st.  We had a great time.  It was fun to get out, even though leaving Ellie was hard.  Thank goodness grandma Jan and Grandpa Gene live close to Thanksgiving Pointe.  We were able to take the kids there and they  babysat for us.

We got this adorable picture together.  I would like to think that Jeron is sweetly looking at me but in all reality the camera kept giving him creepy looking eyes so Misty finally just told him to look at me.

Dan and Misty got all decked out.  Misty had on a formal dress and looked so good in it.  Dan had on his sweet valentines tie.  

Monae and Doug were a bit late but the made it and we had a wonderful time with them.

It really was such a fun night.  Even though I felt bad leaving Ellie so quickly after surgery it was certainly well worth it. 

We had a blast all night and to top the night off we took our turn in the photo booth.  Even "old" peeps can have fun in a photo booth.

Valentine's day Cards

JJ was very much against any kind of Valentine from him this year.  I finally talked him into doing a mathematical one.  He gave in and I think it turned out great.

 Emma's proved to be a bit tricky for me.  The wind was not helpful so we couldn't do it outside but it still turned out cute.  

 Hands down Ellie's is my favorite one this year.  It turned out so cute but Ellie wasn't too impressed with it.  

 I loved every version of Elsie's card and can't pick which one I like best.

 This baby and puppy melted everyone.  How sweet are they.

This is what I love for Valentine's.  I hope you enjoy as well.

Valentine's Day

One of my favorite holidays is Valentine's day.  But boy is it a busy one.  First Elsie had her very first V-Day party.  She was so excited to get her gift bags together for everyone.  She is such a doll face.

 Then there is the crazy box making.  I think Emma's turned out pretty awesome if I do say so myself.  Poor Ellie didn't care so she just used hers from last year.  

Then there is the Heartattack.  This is a favorite part for our kids.  They love doing them.  We sent S. Meads' family, and the Vogel's a heart attack in a box.Then we went and did M.Meads' family, David, and Mama and Papa

When we did Jeff, Tara, and Mac we were caught.  We got a pic with them when we got caught red handed by Mr. Mac.

Emma came home to her room all decorated by her bestie Megan.  I think this was such a cute idea.  

The kids got a package from Ben and Lucy.  They were so excited.  It even came with darling pictures.

Mama and Papa came by and door bell ditched us.  The kids were waiting for them though.  They were excited to get their stuffed animals and their cookie.  Grandma came by earlier in the week with a treat for the kids.  And of course I made them their cookies.  It was such a fun day showered with L.O.V.E.

Happy Valentine's Day

The last few years we have been making our own Valentine's cards. I think they are pretty awesome if I do say so myself.  They have the people I love most on them, making them perfect!

This year my favorite idea is this one.  I think it turned out so cute.

Elsie was terrified to do this one though.  She did not like standing in our bay window at all.

I guess I can't blame, it is two stories high.

 Ellie rocked her picture.  I just had to tell her to give me an awesome Hannah smile and look at that!

 And yes, I could kiss this pretty little lady all day long!

 Oh I'll call you! 

 After removing her chipped fingernail polish Emma liked hers.  Yes, photoshop is awesome!

(can you guess what candy she is giving?)

 Jeron had to stand in the wings to hold the chandelier out of the way and spot the fraidy cat.  

 Every other girl got two so Emma needed another.

 She is so cute!  Literally, we do hug and kiss her all day.

 It is so hard to do boy Valentine's.  Last year we did the mustache one and I loved it but you can't do the same thing twice.  So we took an Uncle Sam theme.

 Since she is so freaking cute we had to add just one more!
