Some Valentine Projects

We love to decorate our house with homemade decorations for the holidays so here are a couple things we've been working on for Valentine's Day!

Beautiful heart flowers

Hearts for garlands

100th Day of School!

Tomorrow is Bailey's 100th day of school and for the 100th day each child was to make something with 100 items.

Bailey made a beautiful flower with 100 petals!

Notice the little bee flying near the flower? :)

Superbowl Sunday!

Every year at this time, Uncle Ryan and Aunty Joey throw their Superbowl Party! I don't care about the football game, but I do look forward to getting together for the Superbowl, chit-chatting and eating! Daddy stayed home to work without us bothering him and the kids and I went and had a great time!

Doesn't look like too many people are
interested in the halftime show

Yummy dinner

See those huge cupcakes on the top?!
Aunty Joey found great vegan cupcakes for the girls!

Rainbow Finger Jello

I've been looking for a layered finger jello that doesn't have any dairy and here is what I found! Love it!

Rainbow Finger Jello

You'll need a 6oz box of Red, Yellow and Blue jello, one box of Knox gelatin and water!
For each layer (start with red and end with blue)
Mix 1/2 c cold water with 1 pkg of Knox
Add Jello and 1 1/2 c boiling water - Stir until dissolved
Add 1/2 c ice and mix to cool
Pour into 9x13 pan (recipe says to oil, but I didn't and it was fine)
Let each layer set for about 20 minutes in the refrigerator before adding next layer.

Make a day ahead so the colors have a chance to mix - yesterday I was thinking I musta waited too long before I added my next layer because the colors didn't seem to mix, but today...just beautiful!

Slice into shapes and enjoy!

Close Up - Isn't it pretty?

BINGO Night

Tonight Bailey's school had a Candyland BINGO Night. Bailey asked Daddy to come home early so we could all go and play Bingo. He tried his best and was actually able to make it home by 6:30p! He quickly ate dinner and off we went. Well, bingo started at 7pm (a little late for us) so the kids played about 5 games and wanted to go to sleep. We left a little before 8p, went home and they hopped into their pjs and went to bed. Fridays are a little hard for us to be out so late, but the kids said they had a fun time anyways.

Guess I forgot to wipe Scooter's face before we left!
