Happy V Day!

My favourite Valentine! Love you hawney!

The girls had a pretty awesome Valentine's day yesterday. It was off to a hectic start as we raced off for gymnastics for 9am but we made it despite the stormy weather. School was closed but luckily, not the gym! Everyone else made it today too so it was more fun than last week.




After the lesson was over at 10, all the kids went over to the climber thing (slides & tunnels, netting etc) and played. and played. and played. We were the last ones there & at 3:30 (yes, FIVE and a HALF hours later) I had to drag them out of there. I have no idea how long they'd have stayed in there if it had been up to them but it was close to 4pm when we got home so that was long enough. Luckily I'd come prepared this week & there was enough lunch to keep everybody happy and they had their drinks to keep them hydrated. Not surprisingly, they slept pretty well last night!



When we got home, there was a surprise in the mailbox! A Valentine's package from Grammie & Grandad. This went over like gangbusters of course. They looooooooooove getting mail addressed to themselves and to have treats on top of that just about put them over the moon. It was quite exciting to rip into those goodies and they were very happy with their loot. They decided to stick their stickers into their valentine cards and have been keeping everything in the gift bag it came in & carry it around or put it on their nightstand for safekeeping.
