happy valentine's...

happy valentines's day!!!

i was in charge of beckam's valentine's party at preschool this year. i made these draw string bags and then made tons of iron on hearts for the kids to be able to put on and decorate. they had lots of fun and i think they turned out really cute. these are the ones i made for true and isaac.{isaac's was later edited so i need to take a picture of it and beckam's from school and put them on the end of this post.} we made the bags, had muffins and fruit, and played hot potato. the kids passed out their valentines and they fit perfectly in their new bags. it was so fun and i was glad i was able to do it.





i was able to go to isaac's valentine's party. they don't let us do anything or plan anything but we do get to go and help with the "friendship party". i was glad i made it to this one since they only have two parties a year and we missed the "thankful party" when we went home for braden and samantha's wedding at thanksgiving. it's always fun to be able to spend a little time with isaac at school. we also got to make his robot valentine box to collect his valentine's in at school.





truman's 2nd birthday...

i can't believe our baby is 2. poor kid woke up sick on his birthday. but he still had a good day. he had lots of help openning his presents. started a band with dad and brothers. and had a burning stick in his cake{which his brothers picked out for him} since dad could find that candles that of course we found later, oh well. happy birthday truman!! we love you! {2/9/2011}

getting our 100 day shirt ready...






at stanley they celebrate the 100th day of school all the kids are suppose to make a shirt with 100 things on them wear that day. we cut out 100 little pieces of fabric the boys counted them all by sorting them into 10's. then we sewed them on the shirt in a 100 pattern. isaac was quite pleased with the result. {1/21/2011}
