Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day!

First we finally had a free night to hang out with some neighbors. It was fun to catch up... Chris and Jason were in goofy moods... Heidi's face says it all...

But at least they included other people in the dance party :)

So Chris makes a statement - we can't get a puppy when we have toys everywhere - the dog will chew on something and get sick or worse...

This leads to the girls wanting to "Spring Clean" the morning room and reorganize the toys... For the record - they have made progress but right now - its a disaster! And there is no puppy any time soon...

This morning the girls opened their cards from family and our little presents. They are always so happy to receive cards and things from the family. It means a lot!

 I found these surprise animals that are in a burrito... they are awesome. The burrito is fake...

Last Game

Basketball games are done!!! Yippeeee! Now its just time to prepare for cheer competitions, which are Feb 24th and March 2nd. 

Lucy loves cheer games too as she has plenty of friends to play with!

We ran errands this weekend and just caught up on items. During the super bowl - the girls entertained themselves by doing my hair... I may be more bald now - but it was fun!

Another week - lots of work - lots of cheer practice!

Hanging Out

We had a great weekend. Nothing too special or exciting, but also not a lot going on -which is always nice with our crazy schedules! Saturday we literally had no commitments - that never happens - so after a nice lunch, we headed to Dave and Busters for some fun. 

I love Heidi's winter hat...

After returning, we had a mini dance party...

Chris decided to try being a man and repair our kitchen light. I can confirm, he was able to get it up and running again and he didn't electrocute himself.

Cheering for basketball games is almost over!

This week will be record cold for us - everyone is predicting no school Wednesday and Thursday for sure and Friday is on the fence. Should be interesting!

SNOW

We got hit with SNOW! The first real big snow of the season. We ended up meeting up with the Belciks and while the "coaches" worked on lineups for cheer competition - the kids and dads played!  Little Lu played a little, but because of her leg, she couldn't really do too much outside and was over it quickly. I also don't think Lucy is really fond of being cold...

To say Chris had fun with his Jeep in the snow is an understatement. He disappeared several times to go play and even helped some people who were stuck. He had a blast.

Now comes the freezing cold and we will probably be over the weather in about a day!

Random

This last weekend, we didn't do much and it was glorious. Of course there was some cheer but mainly... just relaxed for once!

Random, but Heidi had dress like an old lady and Lucy had pj day at school. It was pretty funny...

Enjoying some great food at Fat Heads...

Lucy was the photographer...

 And Lucy helped big Lucy out by doing her makeup... I think she can make a career out of this! :)

The Leg...

Quick update on Lucy's leg...

We had an appointment and the doctor says it is healing nicely. Now she has a slight bow to her leg which is causing one section to take a while longer to heal. He believes this will be ok but he plans to monitor it to be safe.

What is means is Lucy still can't do anything high impact or sports. Like no gymnastics or playgrounds or gym class. She can walk and run and she doesn't have to wear the boot, but she have to keep it mild for 2 more months! Yes 2! 

The picture on the left is from today and on the right is original. Lots have healed - still a long way to go.
