We celebrated our Valentine's all week long
and
a bit at a time.
Sunday evening we had a Valentine supper at church
and Dan joined the drama team for a funny
skit about a church van heading to church.
He was the driver and he picked up a crazy crew
including Joe who was one of the couples' kids.
We had a delicious soup, salad and sandwich meal and great fellowship.
Joe chose mini rubix cubes for Valentines this year.
He had fun putting this simple idea together.
And he had no interest in actually giving them away.
He worked hard using his Math Bowl formula to figure the area and volume of his cube.
What a sweet memory putting together valentines with my boy.
And we snuck in a Valentine meal at home - after work and practice.
Thankful we we able to be at home together.
We grilled steaks, made mashed potatoes, salad for mom and dad
and grandma's frozen punch for drink
And we passed simple hearts around and wrote our favorite thing about that person
on the heart. Here was the win - might have been just for mom- but there were no complaints from my crew of boys becoming men.
And then we had a family ping pong tournament.
DH smokes us all, Sam and Joe are pretty even.
And well, I can barely return any of their good shots.
These two were also able to play with no reports of cheating - ha.
Brotherly Love was in the air.
Grandma stopped by and brought the boys each a Valentine cookie.
Such a sweet treat.
And grandpa took on each of the boys in a ping pong challenge.
Grandpa with the moves!
Scott and Chris also stopped by and we just had a super night of family fun.
We capped it off with angel food cake and fruit with whipped topping.
Simple Valentine Fun.
