I {Heart} Valentines Day!

I usually like to make a Valentines Breakfast! Sometimes we eat it for Dinner. =) It's fun to make everything pink or hearts! This time we had pink waffles. Alley said, "Mom, let's have PINK waffles every day for breakfast, they are soooo yummy!" Ashlyn seems to agree! hmmmm, I guess anything that is pink just tastes so much better....(the secret ingredient- red food coloring... haha =) Ashlyn had a fun Valentines Party at preschool on Thursday! They made sugar cookies, she was very excited that she got to bring the Red sprinkles for the cookies. She brought home a bag of candy and a Big Valentine Picture for Mom & Dad!

Don't you love her "heart hair." I love the ideas from the She Does Hair Blog! I thought it turned out cute! Ashlyn loves it, she also had her hair like that with red ribbon intertwined in the heart today for church. She kept feeling it to make sure the heart was still there!

Alley had a fun Valentines Party at school on Friday. We made these cute Butterfly Valentines for each one in her class. She signed each one "from: Alley" and then she had to put a heart. =) She brought home a large decorated envelope with lot's of Valentines from everybody in her class. It so takes me back to the days of when I was in Elementary school, we use to make big Valentine envelopes and decorate them cute and on Valentines Day we got to pass things out and put a valentine in each kids envelope. I loved it! Then, I remember the excitement of seeing what everybody gave you! So fun!

On Saturday (Valentines Day) a bunch of us friends (kidless) went out to the hills to have a picnic and go shooting! It was so much fun! Here's the boys having a little Clay shooting competition!

Such "tough guys" plugging their ears =)Showing my skills....hahah =)~The Girls competition~ And I WON..... I think it was Luck for sure! =) But my favorite to shoot was the 22 with the scope...I was starting to get good at that one and hit some good targets! The Girls just hanging out

Juwlz, Staci, Me, Rocki, Christina.....we are missing Tera in this picture =(

We had such a fun time! Thanks guys for the great company and such a fun day!

Later that night:

Grandma & Grandpa Laub knocked and Ran at our door and left us a bunch of Heart Cookies! So yummy! Whatever happened to the days of knocking and running and leaving Valentines?? We use to do that all the time! I'm for sure doing that next year! Alley and Ashlyn made hearts and different Valentine pictures all day. Alley made an arrow and came and shot me with it and said, "this is going to make you fall in love with daddy!" And she was very serious! =) she is so stinkin' funny that girl! HA! She makes me laugh all the time with the things she says!

We hope everybody had a Happy Valentines Day!!
