Happy Valentine's Day

Phil and I aren't much on celebrating Valentine's Day as a couple.  We don't see anything "wrong" with it, but we just agree that we should be showing our love for eachother every day, not just on a day that card writers and candy companies have designated as the day of "love".  However, I think I am going to have fun celebrating with the girls!  Because of the snow, their Valentine's Day party at school was postponed, but that just gave me a little more time to put their treats together for their friends.  I will have to admit that this working momma was definitely a lot less creative than some of the other mommas, but I will just have to accept that I am not as crafty as some :)

Here are a few pictures of their party at school.

Kate sure seems to be enjoying her juice - she NEVER gets it, so what a treat!

Mimi sent Valentines treats too! Bubbles and Bandaids....you can sure tell she has 12 grandkids and knows what they will like!  THANK YOU MIMI!

Dear Jesus

We pray with the girls before meals and at bedtime.  Kate usually keeps her eyes open and looks around while we pray, but Anna closes her eyes tight and usually "talks" to Jesus the whole time Phil or I am praying.  One night before bed, we asked Anna if she wanted to pray, and this is her "prayer"...so sweet!

I pray she continues to talk to Jesus so openly and wih such excitement!

CRAZY Weather

On Sunday, the girls had so much fun finally getting outside! It was even warm enough to sport their new flip flops!

By Tuesday, this is what it looked like outside...

Meanwhile, inside, I was busy keeping these two cuties occupied!

When the weather finally let up, we got to play in the snow!

Seriously mom? You're killin' us!

The girls even got to go sledding for the first time! SO MUCH FUN!

And, it's supposed to be in the upper 50's again this weekend! Sheesh! Make up your mind weather!
