Valentine's Day 2009

Emma, Jaycie, and Margie at Preschool at our house on the Tuesday before Valentine's Day. We had several Valentine's parties this year. At preschool, our shape of the week was a heart, so we decorated cupcakes with conversations hearts. I have to read all of them to Jaycie. She likes the one that says "marry me" She thinks that she is still marrying Jackson Eddleman, but apparently at date night he said that he was marrying Margie. Oh the drama of being 4. She'll usually revert to marrying her dad or brother. We went to the Bethany Library on Thursday where the kids heard Valentine stories and made Valentine's and decorated cookies. We had sprinkles everywhere. The kids enjoyed it very much! Friday was the parties at school. Nathan and Jaycie both came home with sacks of candy, etc. Date night was on Valentine's day at Lexie's and the kids had more Valentine fun. Tommy and I enjoyed some peace and quiet and watched "The Notebook" and ate a Wendy's hamburger. I really liked the movie. We discussed going to a store and picking out a card for each other, reading them, and then putting them back. I kinda liked the idea!! :) My mom sent some Valentine's with Curtis, and my Dad sent some in the mail. Curtis gave us a Valentine check and took us to Chick Fil-A. Good times! Thanks to all of our loved ones!!!
