The boys had a party at the Kid Ranch for Valentine's Day on Friday. I'm not sure if you remember parties at school from when you were kids, but they haven't changed much. Seriously. Shoe boxes that have been painted with bright colors with hearts and glitter and a hole cut out of the top. Mostly Valentines from the store with popular characters and some type of candy attached because certainly these small children need large quantities of sugar in addition to the party goodies to eat on the way home. I tend to take the 'blow it all out' approach and just let them eat everything at once. A bold move with three kids, but at least the sugar rush is over in one blaze of glory and doesn't drag out for days.
The whole class sang Happy Birthday to Bristol and Sydnee who both have Valentine's birthdays. Bristol really liked all of the attention and all of the sugar!
Madalyn also had a party at her school which I didn't attend because they had a dance after school that I was banned from attending. (Parents are SOOO embarrassing!) Second dance in one year, but she didn't come home with any special Valentine's from boys so we're safe for another year. No pics to share, but she wore the same shirt and matched her friends Hannah and Willow- ah, the days when matching was the best thing ever and you planned it.
