Valentine celebrations continue

My brain sees what I want to see
I thought this box was labeled "Mind Blowing Silence" I think it's just wishful thinking on my part that silence can actually be purchased.

Little sicky boy
Gar-bear has been a little under the weather. Hayden wrapped him up in a blankie and put him in front of the tv to rest.

Feeling chipper enough to pose for a Valentine photo with his siblings.

Unfortunately we had some dissension in the ranks and we didn't get even one photo where everyone looked pleasant. This is literally the best photo of Danika which is very unusual for our "Pose for a Picture" girl.

Presents and friends present
Courtney went out for dinner with a couple of friends for her Valentine/Birthday meal. They all came back here to have her open her presents. She got some pretty nice things.



Sisters, sisters, there were never such crazy sisters!






Just the two of us!
I kidnapped Har from his work on Wednesday morning and dragged him to Caffe D'arte.

































We had beautiful coffee creations and tasty pastries. And adult conversation! That makes the few minutes we can eek out of the week even sweeter.

All in all it was a fine Valentine celebration
We do focus a lot on "love" around here. There are little notes made in school and evidence of sentiments written in sidewalk chalk on the porch and the door.
Appreciate all those little reminders.
