Annabelle Lynn: {Heart Day}

Forever and always one of my favorite holidays...moments remembered and memories created! The boys paired up with the girls as their silly Valentine. The boys picked out unicorn headbands {that came with Nerds, of course} and balloons. They used their own money and made a special trip to the store just for their girls!

In addition, we had little bags of a few goodies for the kids at breakfast...sweet treats and some fun!

Bubba got his favorite sweet treat...dark chocolate covered blueberries and a bat taper {and some workout pants that didn't fit...apparently my big boy needs XL in everything now}

Bear got some more construction paper and bandaids...as well as something in a few photos below...

Panda got Wiki Stix numbers/counting/shapes cards & new stix

Dub got Wiki Stix alphabet cards and stix to go with them, too!

Her balloon is massive. Bear knows his valentine!

Have I mentioned that Bear is a drummer??? His new-to-him REAL drum kit {he had an electric kit for about 6 years} is loud. Like really really loud. As I was singing in band this past weekend, the drummer told me about these amazing MUTE pads. For less than $20, it reduces the sound by 95%. And everybody said AMEN! Bear doesn't like them so much but my ears are rejoicing!

Bear picked Dub

Bub picked Panda

And we had cake for breakfast too! :) Bear and I also delivered one of these super yummy gluten free cinnamon & brown sugar bundt cakes to Scott's grandmother this afternoon. She is 94 years old and was on the floor playing with Bear...and then got up all by herself! I was impressed!!! She also shared a gorgeous book titled "Pictoral History of The Second World War". Her husband was D-Day plus 4 in Normandy and just passed a few years ago. This book is a treasure and just may be our major spine for history next year! Every page is filled with photos and captions documenting two years of WW2 day by day.
