Valentine's Day!

I have always loved Valentine's Day. Every year since I have been married I decorate the night before so my family can be "surprised" on Vals Day. I save the same decorations year after year. Sometimes I like to mix it up a bit and add something new. A lot of the decorations you see in the pictures, like the cut out hearts, are the same ones I have used since the year 2001. Yet my kids still act and seem surprised year after year. I am guessing that when they are 16-18 years old they will probably tell me that it would be okay to stop this tradition. My kids are having so much fun today. Peyton especially has been so excited about going to school and passing out her valentines. Ruby's been enjoying all of the chocolate. She has been stuffing her mouth. I don't think I even gave candy to my other kids when they were her age. In the picture I posted of her, she just climbed up on the chair and helped herself. She had so much in her mouth she started gagging.

Ice skating

Last week we went ice skating. We had lots of fun. We have only gone a few times before. I am impressed with my kids because they fell and fell and fell and they just kept getting back up. I, thank goodness, did not fall at all. It sure is harder then it looks. I have come to the realization that we are a very boring family and that I am a horrible picture taker. This is all I have to blog in the past month. We really did not do much and well the truth might be that I just did not bring my camera with when we did go out. I am going to try harder.
