L-O-V-E

Valentine's Day in first grade is always one of my favorite holidays.  The party is so sweet.  The kids are just so full of appreciation as they read the cards from their classmates.  They also love to give me little pictures and tokens of affection.  

We received this beautiful arrangement from Wayne and Karen.  The kids also had a special delivery of chocolate and pretzels from them too. 

Kyle sent the most beautiful arrangement to me at school.  I just love flowers and they definitely make the holiday so special. 

Colleen made adorable cookies for Jed and Evangeline....

Evangeline gets the sweetest holiday cards from her friend Andre.  He also gave her some kettle corn from their mom's kettle corn wagon....

Jed's Valentine box from school was absolutely adorable, but it's definitely scared the daylights out of us a time or two when coming around a corner and not expecting it...

I was impressed with the Mine Craft drawing he did on the front.  He's getting more and more interested in drawing.

School Holiday Fun

South School is a really exciting place around the holidays!  We had different dress up days all the week leading up to Christmas break.  Here we are on holiday accessory day!  One day the week leading up to break, our principal, Mrs. Morgan found me in the hallway and told me I needed to drop everything and report to the office.  When I got there I found the rest of the 1st grade teachers there too!  She told us she was taking us on a little getaway.  We boarded the school's short bus where Christmas music was blaring and were driven to McDonalds to get whatever drink we wanted.  While we were gone she had aides covering our classrooms.  It was such a fun surprise.  She told us how much she appreciates all we have done during this super challenging school year, and this was just a little something special.  Evangeline participated in the locker decorating contest.  She had such fun bringing her supplies and getting it done during h...

Cozy at Home

Snow day painting...dreaming of all the flowers in my garden....I have a bunch of old frames so I'm putting a collage of my painted flowers in my bathroom.  It's a cheery touch.  I pulled out some of my old cozy knits I did years ago.  Evangeline loved them!  Pickles did too.  Jed had to join in the fun sporting a toddler sweater...I'm glad they both appreciate those kinds of things...

Down Time

Evangeline was chomping at the bit to use some of her money to go buy a case for her new phone.  We went to TH to look around and then made a stop at Starbucks.  Evangeline felt like a big kid.  We had a fun girls outing.  She wanted to sit inside Starbucks and cuddle on a couch drinking our beverages together.  It was a special moment for me too.  This girl is growing up into such a delightful young lady.   We tried real hard to give our money to an actual shop to purchase the case, but no one had anything that would work.  We ended up resorting to Amazon.  She was really pleased when her sparkly pink case with a heart shaped pop socket arrived in the mail.  The rest of the week was spent lounging around doing all the things we love to do at home.  My nephew's, Cale and Liam came for a sleepover.  We all had so much fun with them!  Jed was of course in his happy place with Cale there to play with.  Evangeline an...
