February is a mix of triumph over January and the heart filled cooler days until March. It's like the happy bridge to spring.
But I live in a place right now where winter kind of feels
like a Colorado spring.
We even got snow the other day here!
Turning a Nike shoe box into a valentine collector
Chester's homemade class valentines :)
Audrey's socks given to her by her sunday school teachers!
She is kind of the queen of February
On Valentine's day Chester's class was invited to make lunch and decorate at the Santa Clarita Valley food services for both elementary school districts. It was a big honor, only one class out of the 4 districts it services was chosen by lottery. He made the salsa and was a greeter to the guests including our superintendent!
And it was actually really good food.
I thought I should get him hot lunches since it made our homemade lunches seem so boring.
(oh, and he willingly wore the pink tee shirt I got him :))
Stephano and Brooke sat with me and Chester :)
I wore pink too...
Making my tradition for the kids!
I only made cake...no dinner. Sorry kids!
Clay took me out for dinner, it was so nice for him to be home. I wanted sushi. Being new here brings a search for restaurants and as we sat down at this new place... drank some water, and then left the restaurant. Music was pumping through a speaker right above our heads and it just seemed so annoying when all I wanted was to sit and talk with my husband:) We headed down the road and found a quiet and decent vietnamese place. So, I was a happy valentine.
(Kids, don't spend $ on a restaurant if you aren't having a good experience! Just leave!)
The next weekend we headed to Arizona for Daniel's baptism.
It was the sweetest.
We were so busy that I didn't take one photo of him!
But he wore a suit and was so excited and I was honored to speak about baptism before his ordinance.

(marcie just sent these to me, cute cousins)
We got back late to the hotel, it had been cold and raining and we hadn't had time to use the beautiful pools at the Westin in Scottsdale. So, Chester and I checked them out and found the hot tub. We quickly got everyone to come down and have fun...along with 2 ducks sitting poolside which eventually plopped in the pool.
And yes, Chester and Henry chased and scared them out, haha.
When we returned from our trip,
Audrey was installed as an Honor Society member at Sierra Vista,
super proud!
She did this all on her own.
We just gave her wings to fly with it :)
made a special lunch for Betty,
one of my sisters I visit through church
I am always blessed to visit those who inspire me.
Color run at school
February is full of saturday basketball, he is so fun to watch!
It's nice not to be stressed out at a game.
I'm sure that will come with high school though!
And finally February comes to a close this year
with Audrey getting her ears pierced.
She did great and we had 2 fabulous girls help her along
💘
like I said, she is the queen of February
