Various Valentine's

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

This week we have been making valentine's and playing around the house. One of my favorite things is to dress up like Princess Leia and have a star wars light saber battle with my dad. Lots of fun!

I have been using my Jedi skills to learn as well. Mom got me some new math and reading learning books, which I finished in 2 days. Good thing she bought the dry erase kind I can do more than once. Bring on something more challenging for me you must!

On Saturday we had my friend Jonas over for a little ravioli dinner. I read him a story and gave him a valentine, although it was Sarah who kept giving him valentine kisses.


On Valentine's morning mom set up a little scavenger hunt and hid little treats and presents all through the house. She is going to have to hid better next time, we found them all in about 1 minute!

We opened our valentine's and gave kisses all around!

Ratchet loves the new valentine toys we picked for him.


The cat was exhausted after a morning of playing.

We got an awesome Barbie sing-along dvd for valentines. We promptly watched it and sang along twice for mom and dad's enjoyment.


The big news this weekend was that mom finally talked dad into a kitchen remodel. Well, not so much talked into, more like she just started cleaning out the cupboards and taking things down.

Goodbye ugly brown useless posts, we won't miss you.

We were debating whether to take out the soffit that ran around the kitchen. We decided to give Sarah the choice. As you can see, she said remove it. They are gone and the good news is other than some wiring and one small pipe there wasn't much in there so no major crisis to start the project with.

Next up, drywall and a new window, then we can start installing new cabinets. We will keep you posted with progress pictures soon.
