Valentine's Day

This morning we had a Valentine's breakfast at Sam's school.  The kids sang three cute songs and then we got to enjoy a breakfast of donuts and fruit with them.  Sam made us an awesome heart shaped valentine.

She was so excited that we were at her school with her.  It was fun to see her interact with the kids she talks about every day.  Today was also another reminder of why we don't let her eat much sugar.  She was bouncing off of the walls!  She has a ton of energy naturally and added sugar puts her over the edge quickly.  I don't envy her teacher for the rest of the day.  20 some kindergartners all hopped up on sugar doesn't sound like a fun day!

Here are a few pictures and from this am.

Weekend fun

We were going to go to papa and grandma's this weekend. We had the ride all packed up and went to pick up the kids at daycare. When we got there we learned that Sam had just thrown up a few minutes earlier. At first she said she was fine and then she said she wanted to go home.

By Saturday am she was mostly fine. We were able to go sledding. It was super fun. Sam tubed all by herself and screamed with joy the whole way down the hill. Brett was less interested but still had a good time.

This am we went to church. Brett refused to go to Sunday school so he sat with Travis and I through the 1.25 hour long service. He did great. He fell asleep at the end and afterwards he talked about hearing about Jesus. Part of me hopes he never wants to go to Sunday school again. We will see.

I ran 7 miles when we got home from church. All of it on the treadmill. I love the treadmill.

Tonight we made French toast for dinner. I found a recipe online and it was great. Cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar and vanilla mixed with the eggs and milk. Yummy! Everyone liked it!

Here's to what will hopefully be a great week!
