So I've been MIA for over a month now and I must confess....Facebook is to blame :-) So I thought I'd take a few minutes to share about my Valentine's Day weekend.
The celebration started on Friday with the kids parties at school....and grandparents day for the girls. Maw Maw Barbara attended the party (Maw Maw Linda was skiing so she had to miss it) and the kids had a blast. They got to exchange Valentine's with all their friends and enjoy lots of goodies at school!
Ready for school
Celebrating with Maw Maw BarbaraFriday night David & I went to dinner while Katie babysat for us. We went to Docksides in Colonial Beach, VA for a nice, quiet dinner. It was delish!! David had steak (what a surprise!) and I had crabcakes that were soooo yummy. After dinner we spent some time shopping in Target....I know, romantic huh?! ha ha
Today I took McKenna & Brennan ice skating with Kerry, Jayci & Connor while David & Alyssa hung out at home...it was her choice!

Getting ready to skateWe had a great time skating although Brennan wasn't too graceful on the ice :-) He spent quite a bit of time falling, but was pretty good about it....until him and I tried to go around the ice together - me holding his hand - he got wobbly, then I did and BOOM down I went. O M G did that hurt! I was holding his hand on my right side so I fell to the left to try and avoid crushing him....I thought I did ok until I heard him sobbing. At first I thought he was crying b/c I was hurt, but no, he hit his head on the ice. Ugh! He's ok...and so am I....except for my arm which is going to be badly bruised I'm sure. We took a break and had some Chick Fil A before heading back out. He was much more timid after that ... but then again, so was I :-)
Before the fall!!
Connor, Brennan, Jayci & McKennaFrom there we met up with David and took the kids to Toys R Us. They had some gift cards left over from Cmas that they wanted to spend. We finished up the day at Jerry's Subs for dinner.
David & I got new Blackberry Storm phones for Valentine's Day and the kids got candy, bean bags, movies, Pixos and a Webkinz from my mom. Almost sounds like Cmas huh?!

I'm so glad you updated your blog! :-) The pictures are great and the ice skating sounded like a blast. Except for the falling part. I don't think I would be able to handle that.
