Happy Love Day

Once again I forgot to bring my camera to Kylie's class party, but there was lots of candy, lots of valentines, a few crafts and lots of smiles. I've been slacking off on my room motherly duties, so it's a good thing the other room moms are picking up the slack. Jayden had a party too and according to him, they had "cupcakes, cookies, milk and that's all". Quite the party if you ask me. Friday night Jason was sweet and brought home rosese for me then we had sort of a "Mormons gone wild" Valentines party at our house. Some friends in our ward started a neighborhood game night where we rotate houses and it was our turn to host this time around. Thank goodness I could count on the local dollar store to supply all my party needs. From high quality lingerie to the dollar store's version of Ralph Lauren's Polo brand cologne for men, there were some highly sought after prizes to get those Valentine sparks a flyin'. We had close to 30 people here and I don't know about everyone else, but I had fun learning a little too much information about everyone. I wish I would have taken some pictures of our fun night. Note to self: next time we host a party, hire a baby-sitter to watch the kids upstairs. We let them invite some of their friends over for a kids party upstairs and they had a little too much fun running amuck. There was water all over the floor from Kylie giving everyone spa treatments and I think I slept on a dozen popcorn kernals last night. It also didn't help when Kylie came down and discovered the dollar store lingerie and wanted to run around showing her friends (sorry Chels, I hope Brayden wasn't too scarred). Well, fun was had by all and the real holiday hadn't even started. Jayden had a T-ball game this morning and while they were gone Kylie decorated the table then we made a Valentine's breakfast for the boys. We had a little impromptu Valentine party with games, crafts and even a sweetheart's ball, which didn't last long because Jason fell asleep on the couch and the kids kept fighting despite my constant reminder that you're not allowed to fight on Valentine's day. Love is shown in many different ways, right??

SO SORRY! I had my hands full of dishes and sent Jer to retrieve the kids and their stuff. Shoulda known better. If I would have seen the horror I would have cleaned it.

How did Jason fall asleep during such a rockin' party?! I love the pics. You are such a fun hot mamma! I'm feeling very guilty. I did so very little for Valentines this year. Not only did you wine and dine your famiy, but the whole stinkin' neighborhood! You're amazing. I wish we could have been at your game night. Sounds like quite the party!

Your game night was the best and it will be hard to top. I am so glad we came and we will for sure come more often.
