Presidents Day

Only 5 minutes after picking the children up from a super fun sleepover at the Webb's fights were already in full swing. We had nearly 8 hours before bedtime and with the day off from school I knew I had better come up with something quick. As we were driving home and I was racking my brain I remembered a friend from WA celebrating Presidents Day with her family. Everyone picking a president or a first lady and coming to dinner as that person. The children were instantly enamored by the idea. Everyone picked their person, we swung by Goodwill and party city, and headed home to study up on our person.

Teddy Roosevelt and Mamie Eisenhower

Jackie Kennedy Onassis, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Thomas Jefferson







George's mom has done such a great job teaching him proper table manners!

Valentines Day

I love Valentines Day! It's just the best! We've been busy with 14 days of valentines, and boy has it been fun!

Today was the big day and we sure were ready for it. New shirts and boxes are always the mark that lets up know!

Luke had a great time at his party and was pleased as punch that Valentines Day is basically another Halloween!







I am so in love with Olivia's box this year! I BEGGED the boys to do minions too, but football boxed prevailed once again. This year we added turf hoping to make them more awesome, but it still wasn't quite to the level of Ollie's.







This time I was headed to Ethan's class for his party. The best part of these parties is how much they love showing off the younger siblings. It is seriously the sweetest thing on the planet.

Happy Valentines Day
