Valentine's & President's Day


This are the Valentines that Hunter chose to give out for Valentines day (these were the extra that Hayden gave out).

These were Hayden't choice.

I did a little decorating.  Hayden remembered the hearts from last year and kept asking for them.  So the day before Valentines day, I hung them on the mirror and some in the dinning room window.

I also planned on making these with the boys, but they didn't have much interest, so I made them myself.  I thought they were pretty cute. 

I went easy for dinner.  Spaghetti!!! The boys love it and it's easy enough to make.  Add canned bread sticks in the shape of a heart and easy peasy Valentines dinner!  We wrapped up the evening with Marble Saga on the Wii.  The new favorite game of the boys (and Keith, I think).

On President's day, the boys had the day off.  They had fun doing some "do it yourself" crafting.  Give a 4 & 6 year old construction paper, scissors and tape and you never know what they will come up with.

Hayden made all kinds of creations. 

Hunter made a chain counting down to his birthday.


We built a fort...
 
 

Then Hunter wanted to make a parachute for his power ranger.

It was actually a pretty nice day out (aside for the 50mph winds) so they went outside to test it out.  Hayden was a bit disappointed that it didn't get sucked up into space, but they still had a lot of fun trying.
 
 

Over all it was a really fun day!!!

(Oh, and yes I know the deck needs stained...)
