Aren't these 2 lovely? Carter was first to become bearded. Funny, ha-ha. But Emma's shocked me! She had a blast running around the church getting all of the reactions from the adults.
We always have a cupcake contest. My boys decided on us making the scout fleur-de-lis. Nice. This was my attempt.
We had heart-shaped pancakes with cinnamon sprinkles in them. I also found a recipe for homemade cinnamon syrup that was delicious. Plus, the red cinnamon sprinkles made it pink, so that made it even MORE special--especially for the girls. Mom made many points that morning.
Our church begins at 1:00pm, so to constructively use their time, the kids pulled out Twister and had a blast! I love hearing their giggles!
Here are my sweethearts all dressed and ready for church.
I figured out how to make hearts in Emma's hair. She had hearts 3 different ways for 3 different days. So fun!
Yep. This was the extent of our Valentine's Day. Between scouting, baptisms, swim meets, a birthday party, and Steve preparing a talk for church, there was no time for dates or much else. We had plenty of candy to keep us sweet and sassy for the whole weekend. Monday for President's Day, Steve took a few hours off and we got a cute girl to babysit Emma and Lizzie so that we could take the boys to see The Lightning Thief. We've all had to read these because the boys are LOVING them, and the books have to be read before the movies are seen in our house. Even Grandpa and Grandma have been persuaded to join us in the quest to see how Percy Jackson saves the world.
