Happy Valentine's Day!

Valentines Day started with some strawberry covered donuts! I have two kids that are morning people and two that are not... can you guess which is which? The other two were eating on the way out the door!I was so excited because the school spread the parties out so that some were on Friday and some Monday. But since we didn't have school Friday due to the snow, they were all on the same day. Luckily they all fell at different times. Austin's was first.
They got to make a Valentine card for anyone they wanted and Austin chose his dad. It was so cute! They also let Ashton make a card of her own which she just loved. She carried that card with her all day!The next party was with Addison's class. They did lots of fun things. They split the kids into groups and had different stations with activities to do. This one was seeing how many candy hearts you could stack. Addie chose to do a pattern.The next game was kisses and hugs. They had to cross their arms when someone yelled "hugs" and hold their arms out if someone yelled "kisses". They were trying to trick each other and whoever messed up was out. Addie was really concentrating.They also had a station with puzzles and another where you held your hand straight out and tried to drop hearts into a cup. Then they played a boys vs. girls relay opening up a Hershey hug with one hand and popping it into their mouth. I don't even know if I could do that!Addie was being so sweet to Ashton, it melted my heart! After all the games they had snacks and Addie shared all of hers with Ashton.After Addison's party we went over to Avery's party.
Avery's class also made Valentine's Day cards and had lots of sweets to eat!Randy sent flowers/balloons to school for the girls and Avery's arrived while Ashton and I were there. It was fun to get to see the look on her face. She was so surprised and excited as everyone asked who they were from and she proudly said her dad.
Since Valentine's Day fell on a Monday, Randy and I went out that weekend and spent Monday with the kids. We set the table all fancy with candles and the girls' flowers, had steak and potatoes and chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. Addie wanted a picture with her flowers too! She was also very excited to get flowers at school! Happy Valentines Day to all my sweethearts!!
