Sorry, I have been remiss in my blog posting of late. We have been happily busy with activities.
This weekend is the Little League Opening Day and if the rain doesn't prevent it, Joshua will have his first ball game of the season. Go Tigers! Jason also is set to have a game that day. We are also looking forward to the Winter Music Festival of the Western Society of Chamber Music on Saturday night. It is a great way to introduce the family to classical music.
We had a very enjoyable Valentine's dinner. The children helped in the kitchen, and had a blast decorating the table. They did an awesome job.
They wanted lots of candles! So I lit up the candelabra and tea lights.
We had champagne and sparkling apple cider. The children were so excited that they got to use the glass champagne flutes.
Sugar Cookies!
The children each arranged a vase of flowers. Mercy decorated place cards. Joshua made construction paper hearts and wrote a Bible verse about love on each one, he then placed one under each plate as a surprise.
It was a special family dinner. We all agreed that we should make it an annual tradition. I am already thinking of ideas for next year!
