L-O-V-E

We tried to share our love with each other all month.  BB did 14 days of love for me.

We made mailboxes and would leave each other love notes.  It was fun to walk by the boxes and see if our "flag" was up.

I have fun making holiday meals

Someone (I can't remember who) didn't want pancakes, so I made some eggs too.

We heart attacked Dad's door again.

Then we hid out to watch him see our handy work.

To finish our day off, we had our 2nd annual Amazing Race!  The boys told me it needed to be harder this year, so I tried my best to make it authentic.

And so the race begins!

A fun end to a fun day with a fun race.  Thanks to all who helped (especially the strangers that played along with us). I sure do LOVE my boys!

Year of the Snake

We found some lantern makers at Michaels for $0.50 so we bought them and tried them out.  I thought it made us look super festive (and yet confusing with the V Day decor up also) for Chinese New Year.

I tired my hand at lo-mein this year and was happy with the results.  It wasn't like the good stuff, but it was better than anything from a box we've tried.  We'll definitely have it again.

Always gettin' his toes

2 Little Monkey's

 Luke brought out his monkey for Clark to play with and I laughed that the monkey was as big as he was!

He does love him though - even gives him kisses.
