"Love Day"

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY FROM THE SUPER SILLY BROWN FAMILY!!!

Now that our "communication board" has officially wished everyone a Happy Valentine's Day, I can move on with how exciting 'Love Day' has been for my kiddos!!

For Katie, her Valentine's Day began yesterday!!! Nathan and me left the house to go pick Katie up from school, and when we all returned home, there was a non-labeled pink envelope and a box of chocolates sitting on top of our mailbox. Katie opened it, and the front of the card had her name written on it, but the inside of the card was unsigned! Hmmmm, secret admirer?? Whoever it was, is NOT coming forward because we still can't figure out who sent it! And Katie really enjoyed those chocolates! ToO cUtE! (See picture below!)

Okie-dokie... onto Nathan! Some of you may have heard of a game called "Mindcraft". Well, Nathan absolutely positively without a doubt is totally for sure addicted to this game! The whole game is pixelated like the old Atari games, and you 'build' houses out of 'blocks' so 'zombies' don't come get you. One of the 'bad guys' is called a "Creeper". Well, Nathan's class was given the option to bring a decorated box to class on Valentine's Day to store all their goodies in, and there were going to be awards given for various categories; he wanted me to make him a "Creeper Box", so a "Creeper Box" he got! Even though Nathan's Creeper box did not win any of the prizes, he REALLY likes the box I made for him!! (See picture below!)

Katie was kinda bummed to learn that junior high is not very welcoming of exchanging Valentine anything. Apparently they were told not to bring any to school because it was "just a normal school day"... between you and me, she did take 5 of her friends 'disguised' Valentine cards in hopes of not getting caught; I'm guessing she was successful because she didn't get in trouble for anything! BUT, Nathan is still in good 'ole elementary school and Valentine's are VERY welcomed! Pinterest helped me locate a CutE idea for Nathan, and with Nathan's FULL approval, we made them! He was looking forward to passing-out his 'special' Valentine to all of his classmates today! (See picture below!)

Finally, no Valentine's Day is complete without a special Valentine from Mommy & Daddy! Both Katie and Nathan got these cute stuffed doggies that hold a gift card with its mouth... BUT, as soon as you pull the gift card out of the doggies mouth, it barks and pants for a few seconds! These were too aDorAbLe! When we gave Nathan his, he gave it a huge hug right after he heard it make noise! LovE! Katie was too 'shy' to take a picture with hers; hahaha, 'tweens'! (See Nathan's picture below!)

Even though my kiddos are going to be hopped up on sugar for the next week, they have had an awesome day! They are DEFINITELY loved!! (Mostly by ME!! Hehehe!)

Until next time...
