Okay! Okay!

I can't stand the guilt anymore! I haven't posted in a month but what can I say? We are sooooo boring! Looking back at my pictures there were a couple things that I could have posted but just didn't so maybe that's what I'll do now.

Valentines Day. The older I get, well basically the longer I'm married I realize what a lame holiday it is. If I were married to a more romantic guy maybe I wouldn't feel this way but I do have to say he has actually tried to put some effort into it. When he was teaching he always brought the girls home a valentine. At school they were always doing fundraisers and selling balloons or flowers and so it was pretty convenient for him. Since he quit teaching though he has actually had to go out of his way to get them something. Thank goodness there is a flower shop in Kamas that has a little of everything. As I've gone back through my pictures for the last few years i haven't taken one picture during the entire month of February! So I don't even have anything to document the fact that he has actually put some effort into Valentines. This year I made a point of actually taking a few pictures during February and especially of the girls and their Valentines! Thanks to the Fudge Fairy we even got chocolate covered strawberries!

Also last month Gracie's class put on a program for president's day. Greg and I both went and it was fun to see her with her class reciting her part for the program. She practiced a lot even though it was only one line about George Washington but she learned a lot about him and was eager to share little tid-bits about him everyday when she came home from school. They made 3 cornered hats and ruffles for their shirts. It's kind of hard to see the hat in this picture but notice the goofball that snuck into the picture in the background.

The whole group sang a song and I tried getting a close-up video of her singing but because she's tall she's on the back row and I couldn't get a good one. This shot cracks me up though. On her tippy toes cheezin it for the camera. That's my girl!

And just because I haven't posted in ages I'll make this a long one and include what the other 2 girls have been up to lately. For some reason they have been playing under the end table in the living room and invited all their friends. Can you see Barbie, Ken, Skipper and the whole gang? I am timing it today to see how long they will play under the table before they get bored and ask me to turn on the Disney channel. Who could get bored with all those friends though! Don't ask me why all the barbies are naked. That's the first thing my kids do when they get a doll is strip them down and they rarely get them dressed again. I think they must get that from their dad because I didn't like barbies as a kid. Still don't.
