The Mother of all V-Day Posts

ALL Valentinesyish things from Valentine's Day week:
 
Thank you for falling asleep on the couch for the first time ever Evie Knight so that I could thoroughly examine your sleeping cuteness!

Lucie Stern V-Day/Chinese New Year party. Kind of an odd collaboration, and frankly, kind of an odd party, but T was pleased with his face paint and Everett liked his food truck noodles, so I guess it was a success.

 My little Picasso's hard at work.

Courtyard event funded by Stanford = Goodnight Moon at the Children's Theatre. I bet the people who planned this event didn't know that Goodnight Moon is Everett's all-time favorite book and he wants it read to him a million times a day ;) Oh wait, yes they did. Me and Alice are awesome ;)

Daddy and Evie devouring cupcakes at the heart party for LPCH. Everyone got a name tag, but the special heart kiddos got a big heart sticker as well. Everett LOVES stickers. LOVES them. He was one happy boy.

Super-T making punch for Mommy's special Valentine's breakfast (on the 13th, since Daddy was going out of town).

Donuts + heart plates + the knowledge that they would be eating candy all day long = happy, happy boys!

The boys each got a special dog house with a chocolate dog inside. The dogs lasted about 5 minutes before they were completely eaten, the houses are still being played with. They were happy so I was happy.

We delivered "Valentine Bread" to the ducks at the duck pond. The boys are matching, again, because Talmage changes his clothes everyday to match whatever Evie is wearing. I do love seeing them so matchy-matchy all the time!

Pizza and movie night with our BFF's while their mom and day celebrated V-day. They watched Cars and ate popcorn and it was so sweet seeing them all snuggled on the sofa!

 My DIY shirt. Kind of {read: really} love it. I've worn it 3 times this week!

Sometimes I think my children must have been switched at birth--like when we go to a dance and both of them are wallflowers and are slightly embarrased that their Momma is shaking her groove thing. Seriously? My children are not partiers? Weird.

 Dancing? Nope. Drinking juice.

 Dancing? Nope. Eating pizza. That little tyke consumed 4 slices!

Dance prizes were enough to get T moving. Barely moving, but it was a step in the right direction. It was a great dance! Loved it!
 
Happy Valenstine's Day (that's what T calls it!)

  1. Oh I so hope you always chaperone their Stake dances when the time comes. I would LOVE to be there. Heck, I'd totally dance with you and make our teenagers despise us! Glad to know that I'm not the only mom who dances at home like I'm 18 again while my kids look just stare at me :)
