Valentines Day 2014

-
 Friday was Valentines Day.  The boys were really excited about taking their boxes to school.


 Sam, mid-cheese. 

On the way to school Finn asked me "who would win in a fight?"  I said, April from Ninja Turtles. He asked me why.  I said, "because she's a girl."   Finn looked at me and said, "not a chance mom."

The boys had a great party at school.  Sam's teacher Mrs. Beth made the sweetest frame for me.  When we got home the boys sat at the kitchen table and pulled all of the goodies out of their boxes.
This is the picture Mrs. Beth took for the frame. 

Next we opened the Valentines that we (me and Michael) got for the boys.  We got them some "mousers", Fun Dip and heart cookies.  They also opened their card from Nana.


For dinner we went over to Gran's house and ate heart shaped pizza from Jets.  Joseph and Turner were there and played with the boys.  At dinner Finn told Gran that he got a Dinosaur Valentine from mommy.  I reminded Finn that it was from Nana.  Finn amended his statement by saying, "yes, it was from Nana - but mommy actually gave it to me."  So, if you decided to send Finn a gift or a card - make sure you hand deliver it too him.  Otherwise, I will get to take the credit for it.











After dinner the boys opened their Valentines from Gran. We got the "Twister" game!

The boys stayed with Gran that night so Michael and I went home and made cookie monsters and watched "Oblivion."  We are a wild and crazy couple.

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
