HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!

When Cary first learned how to give kisses, she did a lot of practicing on brother.

It is a good day to practice your kisses!!!!

That was then, this is now.

This is the only day of the year that we get to eat candy before breakfast,

and boy does it make us smile!

Dinner with Aunt Margret and the rest of the Crew!

Brianna reading books to Samual. Thanks!

Aunt Margret and Cary

Cary showing Edna her new style. (her tights over her pants)

Shortly after this she came out of her room with no pants, no diaper and tights in hand--poor Daddy had to try to recover the situation!

Thomas

Aunt Sarah was able to stop by too!

Aunt Margret is Andy's Great Aunt on his Dad's side. Edna is Aunt Margret's daughter, and also the kids' kindermusic teacher! Dave (Edna's husband), Thomas and Brianna (2 of their 3 children) were able to come, Caroline was the only one that was missing and hopefully she can come next time!

Weekend Party with Papa and Ammy.

We finally all recovered enough to celebrate the Jan. Birthdays (Ammy and Andy).
Ammy and Papa were here for the afternoon and then Jeremy, Amy, Rory and Jace came and helped us eat cake this evening!

Papa brought pig hats back home for all, from his conference.

Now, we are well labeled!

The big blowing of the candles.

We couldn't fit the correct number for Ammy and Andy on the cake

so we had to limit it to 1 box!

The invisible children hiding from Monster Jeremy!

Jace trying to clean up the place.

Back on the trail again!

A quick summary of the last 2 weeks!

This is a real note written by parents in an ALABAMA school district.
Spellings have been left intact. We felt like we could relate!!

23. Maryann was absent december 11-16, because she had a fever,
sorethroat, headache and upset stomach. Her sister was also sick,
fever an sore throat, her brother had a low grade fever and ached all
over. I wasn't the best either, sore throat and fever. There must be
something going around, her father even got hot last night.

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Cheers to Getting along with your Brother/sister on a Monday Morning!
