Valentine’s Day, the Sequel.

As promised, here are the rest of the images from the little mini-shoot the kids and I had yesterday for Valentine’s Day. It was the after nap time slot, and so a bit hit or miss as far as attitudes are concerned, plus we’d already had a fairly busy day… but they really seemed to enjoy both the confetti I packed into the (otherwise empty) little candy box and the occasional motivational Teddy Graham. Though I’m afraid at some point Violet started eating the confetti as well as the grahams.

On a side note, my bedroom is still littered with heart confetti. It’s very festive.

 

 

Hope you all took advantage of February’s lesser known holiday that took place today- I am, of course, talking about Half-Price Candy Day. A very joyous sugar shock to you all!

 

 

 

Heart.

The girlies and I had a little mini photo shoot this afternoon after naps. And of course it was Valentine’s day themed.

Then I found out they were doing “Hearts” as the theme over at iheartfaces. Done and done.

I have a bunch more, but since I can only submit an entry that has a single photo, this is all you get for now. I’ll have to do a second post with the rest. Happy Valentine’s Day, all!

By the Book.

When I saw that this week’s theme over at iheartfaces was “By the Book”, I knew I had to submit an entry. I love reading. I love it so much. I stay up until ungodly hours of the night to finish a book. I seriously went through like 6 books while on vacation last month. I do everything I can to foster that love of reading in my children. It was difficult for me to decide on a reading-related image to submit, but in the end I decided to go with this one, from our last indoor camping “trip”. Reading with Daddy and setting up tents in their room- a few of my kiddos’  favorite things.

Out of Town.

We spent the Christmas break with family in Idaho. It was lovely to get a little break from our oh-so-pleasant (ha ha) Edmonton winter. The majority of the visit was spent lounging on couches, eating Christmas cookies, and playing with new toys with the kiddos.

But a little piece of the visit was spent with these great (and an incredibly cool) friends . These crazy kids (the grown-up ones, that is) just recently got engaged, and wanted some pics of their awesome newly blended family. So we did a little mini-shoot (followed, of course, by a pizza party!) and had some fun. Here are a few of my favorites. Love you guys!

I mean, how can you NOT love an entire family in Chucks?

Spent a beautiful evening with this lovely family. Such cutie girls, who cooperated even as the temperature fell with the sun…

Had so much fun with you guys! See you at a playdate real soon!
