I figure that since my mom always managed to make a big deal about every holiday and give us all a bunch of unrealistic expectations I will do it to my kids. On friday night I decorated the table all valentiney once the kids were in bed and planned to make stawberry crepes in the morning for breakfast-because when you make a big deal out of everything it doesn't ruin them for their future spouses at all. So when they woke up we all all had crepes and the kids got their little valentines prizes, and since it was a blizzard outside we thought it would be fun to go swimming. We went over to Clearfield pool where they have a whole little indoor splash area and a slide, which Pacey was so proud that he was finally tall enough that he could go on it by himself and proceeded to go about 10 times. Tenley just shivered the whole time and was not interested in all of the splashing that was going on-but she loved the slide and the little lazy pool. Later we went to dinner and the comedy club with Jade and Nick and laughed until we were sick-so thanks Jade and Nick (I know that you are gonna read this Jade you blog spy) so for being a stupid holiday we had a great time.
3 Words of genius:
it looks like it was fun, and i am glad for unrealistic expectations. i LOVE strawberry crepes, and have totally forgotten about crepes. you are a good momma.
i agree :) you make life fun for them, and i think they will love it for years to come :)
dang you're cute. Let's just hope Pacey doesn't fall for one of my girls. It would be impossible for them to live up to your overachiever craziness, given their upbringing. "it's your birthday eva? (crap!) well, let's get out a balloon and a cake mix then! of course we'll invite daddy and molly to the party!"
oh so sad...
no, but I really am going to have an actual party for eva this year. she gets to invite five friends from school. I'm so nervous! I got a butterfly party pack off oriental trading, and uh, well... I'm hoping that will do the trick.
