Valentines, President's Day, Birthday... OH MY!!!


Well, Valentine's Day came and went!! Dave and I ditched our kids to our friends house on friday night and had the night to ourselves... it was heavenly! We went to dinner at Timbermine... it was FANTASTIC and the best thing ever is that our bill was only .96 cents!!! Thanks to our gift card that covered the whole bill! We were going to go to the Temple that evening but due to the nasty cold I had... I wasn't feeling too great to go. After dinner we just went home and curl up in our bed and went to sleep... it was beautiful!! The next morning, we picked up our kids and our friend's kids to keep overnight (it was a trade that we did and it worked out great!) and the girls was darling and so much fun! We went to Dave's folks house for a family gathering/dinner... it was a great little Valentine to get together!



President's Day always falls on a Monday so that means everyone (well mostly everyone) got a day off from work!! Dave and his folks and some friends went ICE FISHING up at East Canyon... (I did not go... I wasn't up for it... maybe another time.) They all caught a fish... Dave out fished everyone as usual.

Matt waiting for his fish...

Ginny waiting for her fish...

Drew waiting for his fish...

Drew's friend waiting for his fish too...

Matt got one!! Had to kiss it...

Ginny got one too... proud to show it off...

Yes! Drew got one!!!

Drew's friend had to bite it... he too got one!

Finally Dave got 4! Way to go!



At last, on Tuesday it was COLEMAN'S Birthday!!! He is TWO years old!! Yikes, where did the time go?! We had a small party just us family on his birthday and we had all of our families over on Saturday to celebrate his day! I made a Lightning McQueen cake all from scratch... boy that kid sure LOVES cars, trucks, tractors, anything with wheels! He also sure LOVES balls too!!! Coleman has started showing his true personality that cracks us up... He has started talking in sentences... so clear that you can easily understand what he was saying. He is such a joy in our family and we love him so much!! Happy 2nd Birthday COLEMAN!!!

Coleman had a great birthday! He was spoiled with all kinds of wheeled vehicles from our families!!

Daniel, Katie and Addi gave Coleman a BIG bag full of BALLS!!! Boy, that kid was in LOVE! Thanks everyone for coming and Coleman sure loves his gifts!!

Lightening McQueen cake I made from stratch... Coleman loves it!

He knows what to do with the candle on the cake! He blew it out so soon before we could even finish the song! Good Job!!

Sounds like you had a great weekend! I've been to Timbermine for a work luncheon, but that means I didn't really get to try all of it's wonderfulness... I need to get back! Happy late birthday to Coleman!
