Happy Heart Day!

We all had a very pleasant Valentine's Day this year. The girls' class parties were in the afternoon, so I went up to help with those as usual. It's amazing how excited the kids get about these little parties! Put some tablecloths on their tables, give 'em some food, and they are so happy. I split my time between the two girls, but I was still able to spend some decent time with each of them, including getting to be there for each of their games. Livian, of course, didn't get a party in middle school, so her sisters were so sweet to bring home some extra treats for her.






After school Melaina had gymnastics. Usually the two older girls stay home, but yesterday they were informed that Daddy had a surprise to prepare for them while we were gone, so they had to come with me. I've never seen them more eager to come to their sister's gymnastics practice! While we were gone, Tuell decorated the dining room and prepared dinner (OK, so he cheated a little and got take-out Italian for the main course). When we came home, "Romeo" introduced himself as our waiter and led us to our seats, then proceded to serve us a lovely three-course meal, with the girls in heaven the whole time. At the end of the meal, he presented each of us with a gift. So sweet!


In other news... I've gotten two more etsy orders this week, plus an order from our orthodontist. They called wanting me to embroider names and the website on 20 scrub tops, so I went up there yesterday morning to meet with them about what they wanted. It's a big order, so I hope my machine holds up. It desperately needs to be serviced! On top of those orders, I've been trying to get some UFOs (unfinished objects) done. I have two quilt tops completed, and one of them is quilted and ready to be bound. The other is a twin-sized quilt, and I am trying to find the time to quilt it. But it is sandwiched and ready!
