Happy Valentines Day!



This is Hunter and Kamryn at Breakfast this morning. I am trying to teach Kamryn that presents don't have to be bought to be exciting. So for Valentines day I made pink heart shaped pancakes with strawberry jam and powdered sugar. She thinks I'm mother of the year... If only we were all so easy to please! Hunter has been sick for the last few days and this was his first meal in about 48 hrs. He couldn't shove it in fast enough.

Last night we had some crazy weather! Jeff wasn't about to let me drive to work and I am so greatful that I listened to him. It took Mel about 4 hours drive a usual 30min trip. Roads were closed, cars had slid off the road and were stuck. School buses had to turn around and take kids back to school (and spent the night at the elementary). Crazy, Crazy, Crazy weather! Well, I was planning on getting off early tonight, but because I didn't work last night it looks like I'll be working another late and long shift (sorry Jeff). Kamryn and I decided to give dad his valentines present last night. I've been working on this since right after Christmas. We don't have any little blankets that are long enough for him. He has to grab on of the twin size quilts everytime he gets cold. So we decided he needs an XL lap quilt to keep him warm. Kamryn had lots of fun helping were she could with the quilt. We love you Daddy!

There you going with being super amazing woman again. Beautiful quilt. I decided I need to learn how to sew better. Maybe then I wouldn't dislike sewing so much. Do you teach sewing lessons by chance?
