February happenings...

When February comes in our house, we are tired of winter, we want SPRING!! Good thing we have birthdays to celebrate to keep us preoccupied....well, somewhat! We started out by celebrating Kennady's 2nd birthday. We took the kids to Incredible Pizza. We were there FOREVER!! Finally I left Jeff there with the boys and took Kennady home. There is only so much of that kind of stuff I can take. Kennady got a bike and doll bed for her birthday. She was very excited. Then we celebrated February birthdays on my family's side. That includes: Kennady, my Dad, and Jeff. We celebrated by going to pizza at Rock Creek, then back to my parents for presents and cake.

A day or two in February was warm enough to get outside...Kennady took every advantage of that to try out her new scooter.




Then we had Valentines day....Gavin had a Handy Manny tool box for his Valentines
Oh this picture is out of order...oh, well we painted the family room and kitchen and when I say we I mean Jeff.
O.K, back to Valentines day...these two sat on the stairs together for an hour eating Gavin's valentine candy.

Oh, and when the kids opened their valentines gifts they thanked Santa Claus....where is the love? Santa gets all the credit!

Taking advantage of another warmish day outside....oh and if you can't tell we had colds during February...hence the snotty noses.






Then to Jeff's birthday...he said he didn't want anything.....so if you say that, you are going to pay...so because we are slowly finishing our basement bathroom, I bought him a potty! Next time maybe he will ask for something.



The kids have been wearing Halloween costumes everyday for some strange reason..oh well they got lots of candy when they showed up dressed this way at my sisters....so they will probably continue to wear the costumes!


And getting the potty backfired...because look how excited he is to get to use big power tools to cut out cement in order to move a pipe to be able to install the potty.

And last but not least....Kennady showing off her new dress Grandma Decker made her....thank you!


Now we are excited for March.....which will bring: blessing new baby Hannah who we have never seen....BIRTHDAYS galore....
