Our Valentines

I had the honor and privilege of attending Helaina's First Grade "Hearty" Breakfast.  All of the parents from the three first grade classes contributed to make it a success.

Mr. Spitzley's first grade class!

Thank goodness for the internet. It helps this creatively challenged mom come up with some rather fun holiday activities.  Both Helaina and Zach have received a heart each day since the beginning of February, telling them why we love so much and what makes them special! 



 Helaina decided that mom and dad need hearts too.


My heart note reads, "Me and Zach love having you in our house mom! You are a great person!"

Randy and I certainly love our little valentines!

Daddy Daughter Dance

Helaina's words this evening regarding the Daddy Daughter Dance: "I'm only going to dance with daddy one time tonight. I'm going to spend the rest of the night at the chocolate fountain!"
Sounds about right...
