Valentine's Day

I got to help out with the Valentine parties for both of the girls. Audrey's was on Thursday, since she doesn't go to school on Fridays. She was so excited to have me come help. We fed the kids some yummy snacks and played a few games.

 

Audrey was so excited to come home and go through her bag of valentines: 

She got a package of skittles and knows how much her daddy likes them, so she wrapped them up for him:

On Valentine's Day the kids woke up to a small box of chocolates and a little trinket or two, at their place setting for breakfast. While I was busy getting Rachel out the door for school, Ian helped himself to his chocolates:

That afternoon I got to go to Rachel's class to help with her party. I love that my girls love when I help in their classrooms. The kids decorated cookies and we played a few games. 

 

Natalie had come over to watch Audrey and Ian while I went to Rachel's party. When I came home these cute kiddos were playing outside:

We had a fun afternoon playing with the Mackays. For dinner I made pink heart-shaped pancakes. They were a hit! Andy and I don't go out until the 15th, because February 15th was actually when we went on out first date back in 2000.  The next night we got a babysitter and enjoyed a night out. We did something a bit different and went to watch some horse races. It was a lot of fun!
