...and our Evening






Happy birthday to my favorite 6 year old! We stopped by the school for the kids' Valentine parties. Jackson's was already over, so we headed to Lincoln's class where there was plenty of love and sugar! Since I had all of the kids loaded up I let Jackson pick anywhere he wanted to eat. Jeff bought tons of fun choices for Jackson's birthday dinner before he left... but they've already all been eaten! He picked Burger King. It was a bit of a challenge finding one, but it made for a fun adventure. The kids were well behaved and fun. The had a little living room type area where there were comfy chairs and a coffee table that we enjoyed. Jackson enjoyed decorating his own cupcakes and we delivered all of the extras to the neighbors.

How lucky I am to have four boys to love. :)
um, I mean one man and three boys. (Jeff doesn't like to be called a boy)

My Valentine


My Valentine is out of town for the week, so he worked hard ahead of time to make it special for me. He set up dinner with a couple of friends tonight at the Cheesecake Factory. He sent us with a gift card and strict instructions to get dessert. Babysitting was also included. We went a night early to avoid the Valentine crowd and so that I could be with Jackson on his birthday.

My man is a good man. I'm very lucky.

He also sent me a valentine through the laundry chute. This guy knows romance. :) It was a ziploc bag with half an orange and an animal cracker that said, "Raahr" (Harrison's animal sound)... "orange you glad we're best friends?" See... romance. Some people are into the flowers and chocolate stuff, but my guy knows that I'm a sucker for silly puns, kid quotes, yummy dinner and time with friends.

My man is a good man. I'm very lucky.
