We started celebrating Valentine's Day on Wednesday. Since I don't work on Thursday's, Carl sent me flowers to school on Wednesday. I thought it was very sweet. It had a necklace with it, too! That night he gave the kids their Valentine's and me, my other present. He did a great job picking out presents (by himself). He bought the girls and me bracelets :) And Trey got a truck with a horsetrailer. Everybody loved their gifts!
We also had a Valentine's party at Discovery. We watched a Veggie Tale movie on love and had popcorn, cookies, and drinks. It was a nice break from constantly doing work. All of the kids had the opportunity to learn John 3:16. Believe it or not, some of them didn't know it.
Thursday was Valentine's Day and Carlie's orthodontist appointment. We had to get a new retainer, since she has had her other one since 3rd grade! A lot has changed about her in three years, so I can imagine her mouth has changed too!
At our school the whole school (K-12) decorates Valentine boxes and give for the whole school. It's a lot of fun for the kids to get their boxes home and see all of the different cards and goodies.
I also took my mom to the doctor in Little Rock and got to do a little Valentine shopping of my own.

Makena's bracelet...it says Faith on it and had has a little cross charm.
Carlie's was more teenager-ish. She really liked it!
And this is mine. It's made from piano strings :)
He did good.
My pretty flowers :)
My two boys!
