Love-ly Long Weekend

We had a pretty special love filled weekend celebrating valentines.  It was also filled with a lot of sniffles and kleenex.  

I posted this on Instagram but for my family that does not do such things...  Brady made us a valentine at school and it just made my day.  I love it.   It says, "Happy Valentine's Day!  I love my dad because he tucks me in bed.  I love my mom because she packs my lunch.  xo Brady"


Brad was lucky enough to get the afternoon off work on Friday for good behavior (hehe) so he surprised Blake by going to his class party with me and Brady.  The look on Blake's face when he walked in from recess and saw us all standing there...priceless.  Wish it was on video.  He shouted, "I'm so lucky my WHOLE family is here!"  Swoon.  Brad, Brady and I had driven up to his school but the boys declared it was a walk home from school kind of day.  Indeed.  So Brad drove home and I got the good fortune of walkin with my boys.  Swoon again.

Saturday the boys both had separate birthday parties to attend and then we regrouped again as a family and enjoyed dinner out.  This pic is courtesy of Blake's photography skills while outside waiting for our table:




My parents met us for dinner and gave the boys a little valentine love, Snoopy stuffed animals.  The boys were so crazy excited.  The next morning we met my parents for brunch and Brady insisted Snoopy join us.  Brady played on Brad's phone for a bit and later we discovered someone had been taking pictures:




The following day we all went to the Lego movie in 3D.  (Brad had off work and boys off school for President's Day).  We all really enjoyed it and was such a great end to our long weekend!  However, we've been dealing with yucky colds and Blake ended up missing school yesterday and Brady missed today.  No fun.  Hopefully we will all be healthy soon and stay healthy!!  I'm tired of all the sickies!

So, I also have to share a few pics I found on Brad's phone I just recently discovered.  They are from the crazy bad ice storm we had awhile back.  Just loved the pics so wanted to document.
