My Funny Valentines


Friday morning the kids were excited to wake up and find little packages on the table from Gummy for Valentine's Day. They loved everything and Lucy was especially excited about the clothes and adorable little purse. It is funny how early the fashion obsession can start. Last night we all watched Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown, another gift from Gummy. She has been on our minds and in our prayers a lot lately. The kids love her and talk about visiting her in California all the time. Whenever I tell them we are going to be in the car for awhile they hope that means we are again driving to California to see Gum. Thanks for the gifts Gummy! The kids loved all of them and are hoping to see you soon. We love you lots. Take care and Happy Valentine's Day!


I had to add another picture I just took. These are the beautiful roses Rich brought home for me on Friday. I didn't expect it, it is only the 2nd time in our marriage that I have gotten flowers and the 1st was shortly after we were married. Anyway, that is really not the point. Can you see what Hazel so cleverly decorated the inside of the vase with?! I have seen people use glass marbles, fruit, raffia and other decorations to color up what would be boring stems but I think Hazel took it to a whole new artistic level! Crayons give a whole new meaning to the idea of adding a little color!

My neices and nephew are the cutest! I love Lucy's little face, it's adorable and she's growing up to be so pretty. Keep posting, it's the only way I get to see them now that I'm a million miles away.
