Pre-Valentine's Day Kids Fun

Happy Late Valentine's Day!

Since the kids and we would be spending the actual day of Valentine's Day at Papa's house, and the kids happened to have Friday off from school, I opted to make that day our day to do Valentine's stuff at home.  We started off the day with some Valentine's gifts from Mom and Dad.

And spent some time putting them together and playing with the stickers.

I took them to the craft store to pick out a Valentine's craft to do. Instead they all opted to pick out some new birdhouses to paint. So we spent some time painting those.

And then we spent some time making some chocolate covered strawberries, blueberries and raspberries and ate them all almost as quickly as we made them.

After Dad was done working for the day we went for a drive and ended up at the local animal shelter giving some of the doggies and kitties there a little Pre-Valentine's Day lovin'.

Then that evening was the twins' date they had received tickets for for Christmas. They got to spend the evening seeing Marvel Universe Live with Dad. They loved it and couldn't quit talking about it the next morning with me.  Dad even took a selfie to commemorate their date.

Caleb, Faith and I stayed home and spent the evening watching a princess movie and relaxing. It was a very good day indeed.
