Happy Valentines Day

We had a great time celebrating Valentine's Day with our little loves! Levi had his party on Monday, since he's not in school on Tuesdays - it was super cute and so low key compared to elementary school parties. Have I mentioned how much I love the preschool age :) I made these little conversation heart cookies for his class, although it was a breakfast themed party, so after pancakes and fruit, we decided not to serve the cookies right away and they saved them for an after lunch treat.






We started the day with CANDY and I decided to just let them eat whatever sugar they wanted that day.....here they are after Katelyn got home from school pretending to show me their stomach aches - I'm pretty sure Katelyn had cake for breakfast, cake for snack and a cookie for lunch that day with candy strung in between all day long....just thinking about it makes me cringe :)


We surprised the kids with a trip to the San Antonio Rodeo that afternoon. It was a perfect night - not too cold and small crowds. Our intent was to stay for the concert, but after touring around the petting zoo, livestock shows, milking a cow demonstration, pig races, and the actual rodeo we decided to leave around 8:40 and just couldn't keep the kids up that late on a school night for the concert. We had a fun Family Valentine's Night.









And here are a few pictures their teachers sent me from school....Katelyn class exchanging valentine's. 


And Levi's teacher created this sweet picture too!

Courtney & Eric's Wedding in Dripping Springs

A few weekends ago, one of Lex's cousins, Courtney got married! It was a beautiful wedding and we had a great time visiting with family, dancing and celebrating their new life together! We love weddings!



This one loved (and licked) every ounce of his ketchup!







Mimi & Pops

We love it when Mimi & Pops come to visit!! Lots of hugs and extra attention for these sweet kids! 









Me and My Guy Dance

Katelyn's elementary school holds a "Me and My Guy" dance at school every year. This year Lex took her out to a fancy dinner before hand, brought her flowers, and then off the dance the night away. They had a great time and I am sure built lots of fun Daddy / Daughter Memories. Love this!







January Fun

The weather is all over the place in January, so some pictures we have on face masks (lol) and others we are wearing short sleeves!  Here we are on the way to the ranch one cold January day!


Katelyn rocked selling Girl Scout cookies around the neighborhood this year. She loved it!





Katelyn's class at school....such cute kiddos!


Kyler loved getting Mommy's oil changed one morning with me....snacks, legos and open air to the body shop = win win for all!


We brought out all the stuffed animals one morning and put them in one big pile to play zoo....can't believe how many stuffy's these kiddos have!


Brotherly love


Backyard Bliss - some days, I actually get to lay in the hammock while the kids play! Most days - they won't let me sit down :)


Zoodles for the win!!! I got a veggie spiralizer for Christmas and love it! 



Kings Inn & Corpus

For Pappy's Birthday this year we went down and spent the night in Corpus, ate at the fabulous Kings Inn, swam in the indoor pool, and even got our toes in the sand a little bit. We loved celebrating with him!!
