Valentine's Day!

Valentine's Day was WONDERFUL! I think it is my favorite because I see how much my boys watch their father - and how much he spoils me every year! He is so romantic and thoughtful and I know our boys are catching on to that - maybe someday they will have the opportunity to spoil their wives as much as their dad does me.
Anyway this is the most precious picture - it may not look like much - but Dakota woke up early Sat morning and made this toast for me. We didn't have heart cookie cutters so he took ALOT of time cutting this out. Then he topped it with Apple Butter - which he knows I love!




I have always wanted a boquet of "mixed" roses - and yes, Jeremy surprised me with these on Friday at the preschool! They are the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen! This picture doesn't do them justice - but you get the idea. He is very deceptive when it comes to keeping secrets from me!



This was sitting under the flowers on Sat. and yes my boys thought it was the funniest thing ever! They were saying it for days - I guess there are worse things for them to be saying - I think they just liked the "look" I gave them each time! It was alot of fun around here and I'm so thankful for a husband that cares so much and shows it in so many ways!

Sat. night we went with Jeremy and Felicia to The Lodge for dinner. It was so great to get out with them again! We always have so much fun together with way too much laughing involved!
It was great food and great entertainment and a wonderfully romantic setting. And yes Jeremy even asked me to dance - it took him awhile but we had so much fun!

My Husband - My Hero

I had eye surgery last Friday and was it an experience!! To say the least my "recovery" time was a little difficult. The doctor said that a small percentage say that it is the worst experience of their life - YES that was me! Well, my wedding vows came to mind - you know the part about "in sickness and in health". I could not open my eyes for approx. 24 hours and also in extreme pain. Jeremy came and basically helped me keep from going insane. He made sure my meds were taken at EXACTLY the right times, made sure the kids were taken care of, and helped me with everyting (I will never take "seeing" for granted ever again!), he held me until sleep came my way, he spoon fed me potato soup, and most importantly he prayed for me. I am sure he did a lot more - but I can't remember much more - the days are all a blur.
And now it is Tuesday and I am doing much better! Halleluiah!!!! I was very worried there for awhile.
My husband - my hero! I can never thank him enough for everything he does, not only when I'm sick, but every other day too! My husband is the most awesome man and I just want him to know how much I love him!!!!!!

Wyatt meets the Wild West

Wanted to share some pics of the cutest little boy ever! Well, besides my 3 precious boys that is! Wyatt came and spent the night with us on Friday. We had SO much fun! He kept us busy and rolling with laughter all night and the next day too! It definitely brought back memories of when mine were 2 yrs old. The questions that never end, the sippy cups, diaper bags, wet wipes, car seats, nap times, and who could forget "the diaper changes"! Those of you that still have 2 yr olds - it does get better but cherrish these times for they won't be here for very long.





Do I have 3 boys or 4????????

Basketball

Well, one basketball season is over and now one is starting! Dylan has had a great season! His last game was last night and they won!! 44 to 15 they played against Winfield. Dylan scored 4 points and was great!

Now we start Damon's first year of basketball. He is playing Upward Basketball. They don't keep score(but Daddy does) and there are no fouls called. So you can imagine 7 & 8 yr olds free to play however they see it! We thought it would be a good start for him to learn the game before he gets into the "competitive league". He is having a great time and he even knew some of the boys on his team.

At his first game - My best friend's daughter: Lizzie was a beautiful cheerleader for the teams!
Go Lizzie!!!
