Heart Day Happenings

Yesterday, Blake and Sydney had their school Valentine's Day parties. I got to go, compliments of Briana, the super-sitter. (Side note: I knew Briana would be an awesome sitter when her younger sister told me that she didn't understand her sis because her "only ambition in life was to be a wife and mother". Can you say perfect babysitter?!)

Blake's class made ice cream sundaes. They were very serious about the toppings...

Sydney's class was pretty much finished with their party by the time I got to her classroom. Apparently, the party was from 1:15 to 2:05, not 1:30 to 2:30 as previously advertised. But I followed them out to the playground and enjoyed watching them play. Here's a pic of Syd with BFFs Camryn and Casey.

This morning, Andy made french toast with white bread (anything on white bread is a treat to my kids). And then the kids opened up some little gifts I'd bought them at Lifeway. Max got a cd of kids' worship music, and our morning turned into a jam session. I will admit that isn't uncommon around here, but this morning, I managed to get a little video. You can't tell me that white kids can't dance.

I leave you with my favorite photo of the week. Last Sunday, after church, we went to Denny's for breakfast. We'll talk about how insane it is that my family's favorite restaurant is Denny's another time. But I just happened to have my little pocket camera, and got this shot:
