pinky sweet!

Ahhh Valentines! How I love this day! This year I decided to sign up to host the party for J's class. I got each kid a heart shaped mylar balloon from the dollar store, and hung one from each of their chairs. Then I had them make a "cupid's crunch" which was popcorn and chex mix and then they added pink and red candies. The kids really did love it and It was worth all the running around I did!

This is Juli putting her hands together for prayer... so sweet!

I made the cute little cupcakes in the corner, and forgot to take pictures... ugh!

This was a 5K with a Valentine theme!

My little cuttie pie!

This was a terrarium Annelise helped me make for her theacher. She is on a diet, so I thought this would be a gift she could enjoy?

This was my NIGHTMARE last weekend Marielle is allergic to the antibiotic she was on.

Austin Zoo.

I was told not to expect much. It was just a great way to spend some time with the kids!

DISNEY!!! I love this place!!!! This was Ann's 3rd time going!!! (I KNOW ...SPOILED!) I swear I had only been 3 times my whole life before the 3 times with her! Crazy! We have just had oppurtunities to tag along with Juan twice and my sister once.

A picture I never want to forget!

This drawing I recently came accross when I was cleaning out her artwork. I would ask Ann what we could toss? She insisted on keeping this one and so I took a good look at it and asked what was in the sunglasses?

She says "oh that is the reflection of the bucket"...

ME: "reflection?!?!? Where did you learn about refection? "

Ann : "The Jonah and the Whale audio book"

and then she quotes the book "Jonah saw his reflection in the eye of the Whale."

My mouth was dropped open! She had to be four when she did that! I think she is going to be a talented artist like my Mom and Juan's Brother and Sister.
