I thought this would be a slow time of year for photography but it hasn't turned out that way thanks to some sweet babies I had the privilege of capturing on film. And because of that, I am putting totally unedited pictures up in today's post. Sorry for the lack of eye-candy.
It was my birthday last week. The kids were SO excited. It makes a mother's heart go pitter-patter when her kids remember her day.
Jeff went above and beyond with a little surprise dinner out with friends. Awww....it was so nice! He had picked up pizza for the kids and I was about to help myself to a slice when he informed me that we were going out to dinner. So fun! What a wonderful man I am married to!
He also made cherry cheese pie--which is my ultimate favorite--and its tradition to have it for my birthday instead of cake.
One of the kids decorated it. haha
Jillian wanted to make me a cake so she made it for Valentine's Day--although never got around to eating it until this morning.
Yes, you read that right.
"Dad is great! He gives us chocolate cake!"
Hopefully none of their teachers are reading this.....
{Just the big kids got cake for breakfast--not the little ones.}
On Valentine's day, we have a tradition to eat in the dining room.
There is no deviating from this no matter how hard I try.
They.Love.This.
And the treat bags afterwards don't hurt either.
SaraGrace asked if she could dress up for the big occasion. I said yes, and a bit later she came downstairs like this:
And then she danced with her daddy...
Jillian's creation...
I am one blessed woman.
