Sweethearts

We celebrated Valentine's Day on the Tuesday before Valentine's since Jeff was going to be out of town for work.  We had a wonderful dinner of steaks, baked potatoes, salad and brownies.  Thursday morning, the girls awoke ready to open their gifts.  That evening we ate heart shaped pancakes.


 When Jeff arrived home on Friday, he came bearing more gifts for V-Day.  Caroline got a new dress (not this one) and Juliann got some new workout clothes and they both got new socks.   Daddy also spoiled me and got me a new running jacket and headband.  He did wonderful!!!

Weekend in San Antonio

Last weekend, we headed to San Antonio for a wedding.  The girls got out of school at lunch on Friday, so Jeff and I took off early so we could head out of town earlier.  That evening, Katie and Nathan flew in and we headed to meet Uncle Doc, Aunt Nikki, and her parents at a hamburger place for dinner.  We celebrated Uncle Nathan's birthday with cake after dinner.


 We sang Happy Birthday and had them pretend to blow out the candles.  We did not have a lighter to light them.
 That evening, the girls had fun brusing their teeth and using the pink tablets to see if they had cleaned their teeth well.  Caroline ended up swallowing hers and Juliann had pink, everywhere.  Thank God, we were at the hotel and not at home.

Saturday morning, the guys woke up early and went to play golf.  The girls stayed back and exercised at the hotel.  Then we met them for lunch at Chewy's.  After lunch we got ready for Scott and Amanda's wedding.

 Check out these handsome brothers in their bow ties.


Then we headed for the reception for wine and cheese.  Caroline did not want to smile for pictures.  She said her tummy was hurting her and she wanted to go home.

 She finally smiled and took a picture with her Daddy.
We thought that maybe Caroline would feel better after she ate dinner.  Jeff made the girls plates and Caroline tried her luck at eating bread.  After one bite, she threw up all over her and me.  I quickly took her outside and undressed her and put her in the car.  Jeff and I then took her back to the hotel.  I held a bag in front of her the whole way in case she got sick again.  Once we stopped at the hotel, I took the bag away to start to get her out of her seat.  Then she did it again, all of herself.  I quickly got her out of her carseat and took her into the hotel.  I got several strange looks since she was only wearing panties and we didn't smell so good.  I simply appologized and said she was sick.  One lady was so kind on the elevator making sure I got to my floor before she even thought about getting off on her floor.  Once we got in our room, I gave her a bath and let her watch TV while I cleaned out our dresses and the carseat in the bathtub.  She said she was feeling better a little while later and that she was hungry.  So, Jeff, Caroline, and I headed downstairs and ate dinner and hung out while we waited for the rest of the family to return from the reception.  Juliann had a great time dancing with everyone!

Last weekend, we headed to Weston's baby shower Saturday morning and his baptism on Sunday morning.  We are so excited for Lanise and Tyler!  Caroline showed us that she can swing by herself.

Sunday, we headed to the Smith's house to watch the Superbowl with the Wallis and Key families.  The kids had a blast playing together!

Catholic School Week

Last week at St. Philip's, they celebrated Catholic School Week.  It began with opening mass on Sunday.  Juliann was a greeter before mass.
 Monday, they wore their favorite team shirts. On Tuesday, it was crazy hair day.  They knew exactly how they wanted their hair to look.
 
Wednesday, they wore camo shirts in honor of Dad's day.  They enjoyed lunch with their Daddy and shopping at the book fair.
 On Thursday, they wore pink for Mom's day.  We enjoyed lunch and shopping at the book fair, too!
Friday was Grandparent's day.  They enjoyed lunch and shopping with Papi, Meme, and Papa!  They had a fun week.
