Valentine's Day with the Family!


I can't believe it's Valentine's Day! I completely forgot about it because with David, it really seems like every day is Valentines Day and it seems excessive to get EXTRA love!!!

David is actually out of town right now (Can you believe his work had an out of town conference that started on Valentine's Day?!) That can't have gone over well with some people. I bet that started some fights.

I put these cute little bugs from Hallmark in front of the kids' doors this morning so that when they woke up they had some Valentines love! They were full of cute little things like money, lip gloss, a card, and candy. Eban got a little stuffed animal that is cute but if you turn it inside out it makes a scary face. So that when he's in a cranky mood, he can turn his friend inside out and they can be all mad together. I can't promise that it won't make me laugh though which will make him even more mad. It's so cute. Ha ha.

Our little Eban has a bit of social anxiety. He will meet people and then give them the five minute freezout. He won't respond, he just kinda pulls his lip in and avoids eye contact. But give him just a bit, and he won't be able to stop.

Bailey, the next youngest, is extremely social. She doesn't know a stranger, she'll walk right up and give you a giant hug!

Natalie is the sweetheart, her father has called her Weaslemonkey since she was a baby because if there is some snuggle action going on, she will somehow work her way right into the mix before you've figured it out.

Kendall always makes me laugh. Always. She has very quick wit and has mastered the art of sarcasm just like her dad. Sometimes after everyone else has stopped laughing, I'll think of something she said and start laughing again. She definitely got her father's sense of humor.

So , those people are my Valentines today!! I am making a special dinner tonight for them but I don't know exactly what yet. It'll be yummy though!!

The girls went with us to pick out wedding bands a few days ago....my wedding band is ...breathtaking.

They also went with me to pick out my dress, some of my jewelry, my shoes, the venue , and the kids will be with us for our cake and dinner tasting.

This wedding is truly more than just a couple coming together, it is the marriage of a family. A really fun, perfectly blended, potluck of personalities.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Give everyone you love snuggles!!!!
Thanks for all the RSVPS...I'm thrilled!!!
