A LOVEly Weekend in Pictures

We spent our Valentine's weekend on the go, and while we aren't big fans of all the details and "hoop-la" surrounding many holidays, we have decided that we can show God's love in every "holiday" that we experience.  So, here is how we spent our Valentine's with the ones we love...


Mimi brought the boys their Valentine's gifts early on the 12th. 

Daniel received an awesome box of snacks, a talking Toby train from Thomas and Friend, a Toby apple juice cup, and some other goodies. 

Samuel got some Gerber Puffs, a box of Gerber baby food, and a set of cars.  The boys got Mimi a gift card to Cato and a bag of her favorite candies.

After spending the evening at our church's "It's a Love Story" dinner, we came home to find our firstborn wide awake and ready for his own loving!


We spent the entire Valentine's Day together!  We started our day outside, enjoying the beautiful sunshine!

 
Grandpa brought Daniel his own box of Dum-Dum suckers!
Daniel and Samuel gave Pa a box of banana chips and Snickers.
Pa and Mimi kept the boys for Mommy and Daddy to go to dinner.

We attempted a few family shots...
But Mommy and Daddy ended up eating at Longhorn and watching a movie, in the van!

The next morning, we woke to find Samuel not feeling so well.
He continued getting worse.  Details will follow in a later post.

Daniel went to Mother's Day Out and brought home this Valentine to Mommy and Daddy.

He spent most of his evening enjoying all of the Valentines he received at MDO.

Daniel loved his Valentines from Mommy and Daddy:
a Whiff train from Thomas and Friends and Hero of the Rails golden book.
Daddy let Daniel pick his very own Valentine's balloon...
He chose an Elmo one.

Samuel loved his gifts too:
a set of cars (the same set Mimi got him) and a First Words book.
He really liked watching Daniel's balloon.  :)

Did I mention that Aunt Ca ALSO spent Valentine's evening with the boys AND got them lots of goodies?!  Seriously, we are so loved.
