Freeway Construction

The I-15 Core Project has move to our side of the freeway. Lots of beeping equipment, construction workers, and dirt coating our windows. Since I took these pictures they have installed the posts for the sound wall. Pretty soon we will not be able to see the freeway, which will be very strange.

Valentine's

We celebrated Valentine's mostly on the 10th of February. The kids all had their class parties that day. They all enjoyed their Valentine's loot. Although when Jack first went through his bag his thoughts were this is all girlie stuff! I guess Valentine's just has more of a girlie feel to it...colors and all! He still enjoyed eating the candy:)
I helped at Lucie's class party in the morning. They had an Alice and Wonderland day since they had just finished reading the book. They got to wear best dress and do all sorts of Alice and Wonderland activities like play croquet and have a tea party all day long.
I helped in Jack's class in the afternoon. I lucked out and got to help at the frosting cookie station. It was pretty chill.

On Valentine's day Lucie, Jack and Ruby received a surprise package from UPS.  It was from the Sweet Tooth Fairy.  Our sweet adopted grandma sent our little friends a dozen cake bites!
 

Also on Valentine's day grandma made yummy sugar cookies!  On Valentine's night our activity day girls and leaders hosted a babysitting night so parents could go out.  Lucie was so excited that she got to babysit and Jack and Ruby were thrilled to hang out with their friends at the church for a bit.  Trent and I went to dinner at Great Steak....it was yummy and no crazy wait!

Cheerleader Girlies

This is "Ruby Special!"  She loves to wear leggings and is into getting herself dressed.  Sometimes when she picks out her clothes she will ask if she can go into the bathroom to change.  She is very creative and opinionated with what she wants to wear.  Right now she wants to wear skirts with leggings.  I am not sure when I was last able to get her to wear pants.

The BYU cheerleader dress is one of her favorites.  Lucie was trying to teach Ruby some moves.
