Fast and Furious February

It’s one of our busiest months

We took the kids to see the GlobeTrotters at the convo. I let them both get basketballs. They were so happy.

I helped host a baby shower for Tia and baby Kolby. I did all the decorations and it turned out pretty cute. I let Arden come with me since it was at Lori’s house. Turns out there were several little girlies there and they played and played! When I got home I found some unexpected selfies on my phone! Lol!!

Arden got a new swim suit for our upcoming weekend in Branson!

I thought I’d never get it off of her!

I made the kids Valentines for school.

Arden’s were mini slinkies

Stratton’s were mini rocket blasters!

Big guy at his Valentine’s Party. Which was at 9:30 AM!

So maybe the rockets weren’t a good idea! Mr. Tyler wasn’t there that day. Poor substitute teacher!!

After his party he got to come to the office with me. We had a lunch date and he picked Sues! That’s my boy! Best rolls ever!

The kids spent the weekend with Nan and Pa. We all went to the Game and Fish show at the convo before they left. The kids were really tired but they liked the boats!

Arden DID NOT want her picture taken!

They really liked the purple one!

Valentine’s Day Dinner at the 501! What’s better than great friends and great food! Such a fun night! One of my favorite’s of the year!

We’ve celebrated our birthday’s together for 16 years! Is that crazy or what??

 

We went to a small benefit concert by Phillip Sweet from Little Big Town in Wilson with the Fitts. It was a fun double date. It POURED rain and the food was awful, but the concert part was cool.

Then I turned 35. Offically “Middle Aged”. It was tough!

And went to bed and surprisingly got out of bed the next day, too. Shocker! My life is not over!

 

 

We spent a long weekend in Branson with the kiddos. The place we stayed had a small indoor pool area we spent the mornings there, did a little shopping and a little eating out. It was a fun weekend.
