Valentines Weekend

Well I can honestly say the weekend ended on a much brighter note than it started. We celebrated Valentines day with punch, dinner, and movies from the library. The movies consisted of Dr. Seuss from about 15yrs ago, a Dinosaur movie from the 70's that was a non-fiction about the dinosaurs, and we ended it all with Creepy Creatures which is a movie from National Geographic in which a black cat narrates about all the creepy creatures such as the rattlesnake, black widow, vampire bats, Komodo dragons, and lots of other creepy things. These were very appropriate for Valentines day wouldn't you say? We also flew kites, went for a walk, and read lots of books. The kite flying was the highlight. TJ has now made 3 kites and is still experimenting. He wants to make kites and sell them now that he realizes how much fun they are. He is such the entrepreneur. On a funny note. When we went to go for our walk we met up with our neighbors children. There are 3 of them ages 5, 8, and 10. They were in their yard playing and asked if they could go along. Before I could respond they ran in and came back out and joined us. I looked at Kristina and said that I feel like we were in a parade. It was me and 7 children all walking along the road. The funny part was that we got half way down the road and their dad pulls up besides us. His kids yell, "Hey dad! Is it alright if we go for a walk with them?" He responds with, "Oh now you ask me." I told him it was Ok with me and that I would have them home soon. I apologized and said that I was told they had asked to come. I don't really think he thought I was crazy enough to kidnap 3 more children to go along with the 4 I already have. At least I hope he didn't.


















I wanted to add some pics of the kids so daddy could see them. Here is my catbird after she saw her cupcakes for school.





















Here is TJ flying his kite.























No this is not a picture of my baby getting ready to be eaten by a vicious dog. It is her Scooby having a conversation. I think he is telling her what he would like her to sneak to him off her dinner plate. :) She does love to share with him.
