Valentines Day...a little late.

I'll be honest, we dont really go crazy on Valentines around here. The boys love to make their friends their Valentines for friends though. Jimmy made some really cute "I wheelie like you" ones with hot wheels and rice krispie treats for his friends. Tommy made cupid crunch (popcorn and red,white and pink M@M's.







I'm not sure if it's because we used off brand or what but they did not really go as planned. They tasted and looked good but after a few minutes that got REALLY hard. You could crack a tooth. Needless to say we went and bought the box ones for his friends.



Nothing stopped us from eating them though. LOL



Jimmy and I made Daddy's favorite bananna pudding and Tommy's favorite chicken for dinner. The kids got new jammies in their Valentines bags. Man my kids LOVE THEM SOME NEW JAMMIES! LOL


We had our first baseball pracitce that night too. Tommy did really well. He has a really nice team and coach so we are looking forward to a great season. BUSY,BUSY,BUSY!

He works hard for his money and this little man proves it!

Last week Marc had his annual company meeting. They always stay downtown the night before because there is so much going on. I went last year and just chilled at the hotel when it was at the W. I was not a fan of that hotel! It was at the Ritz this year and I was bummed. Oh well, I would have rather been home with the boys anyway. The next day he grabbed a few bags they had left over and brought us some lunch home. Let me just tell you, this was the BEST SANDWICH I have had in a LONG time. That either tells you it was really good or I don't get out enough. Probably a little bit of both.



My man is "BRINGIN IT" this year! I do not have the words to describe to you how proud I have been of him in the last 6 months. Instead of getting in a slump and monotinous he has kicked his game up a notch. He has always had a head for business but latley he has really been challenging himself in so many ways. I just couldnt be prouder.




Looks like they agree with me! I was so proud of him. He won this little guy at the meeting. They sky is the limit for my man!

Meet Puppy Lightning McQueen

Jimmy went to a Build A Bear birthday party for his little friend Rachel. It was adorable. He was so stinkin cute and polite the whole time. See the little girl in the pink with the purple bow. Jimmy was attached to her. It was too funny. He was everywhere she was.





He got to make his own bear and he named him Puppy Lightning McQueen. He apparently had lots to say about it.


He took such pride in putting him together and washing him up. Whoever thought up the idea of Build A Bear is a GENIUS.


Two happy boys.


He was not happy it was a Tangled party but he got real happy as soon as he saw COOKIE CAKE.


Jimmy and his "friend" again. They were checking out what horses they were going to ride.


Because I cant leave you without a kitchen post here is one of my favorites. I have had this FOREVER. It is my Tupperware steamer. I love this thing. I just put some water in the bottom and steam ANYTHING on the top. Works perfect every time.



It has been raining here for the last two days NON STOP. I'm worried we are going to float away. Tomorrow night we are going to have a little indoor movie night for the kiddos and not much beyond that. I found out this week that we will be going to the beach 3 times this summer. Looks like I need to GET IN SHAPE!
