A Little Valentines Love..

Valentines day was a pretty fun day this year!




The girls were all decked out in there valentines clothes and hair in the shape of hearts and Then there was Karden even refusing to wear a red shirt! Hes getting to old for moms themes!! Its killing me! :)

The kids woke up to there valentines from mom and dad- Pez dispensers and the movie Hotel Transylvania.



Karden was so excited to go to school that day because he got to take his valentines box.

This year he decided he wanted a cobra. Really! Ryan and I have NO art skills and so we bribed uncle Paul with pizza and he did not disappoint! His valentines box turned out awesome!! a cobra coming out of a basket!!

 Karden was soo excited that his teacher took a picture of it- He probably took a picture of all the kids boxes but still- Karden was on cloud 9!

I pulled the short straw  I got the honor of helping in the Kindergarten Valentines Class Party! I was in charge of the game. I found a valentines themed twister game!

The kids all loved it and got to burn off some energy from all the sugar they were eating, but the fact that most of the kids are confused about there left and right hand/foot made for alot of circling the game and tapping what hand/foot they needed to move!   I went home exhausted! Twenty five 5 year old hyped up on sugar and excitement! Wowzer- Miss Mellor is a saint!

For Dinner that night we had a "red" dinner! Everything we ate had to be red! The kids thought it was the best thing ever!  We had Spaghetti with red sauce, Strawberries, Beets, Cherry jello, and Love potion (fruit punch) to drink. For dessert we had Strawberry Ice Cream. After dinner we watched Hotel Transylvania together- it was a cute movie!

When It was dark I had the kids "kick" valentines to the neighborhood friends. They didn't quite get the concept and rang the doorbell and waited for them to answer- whatever makes them happy I guess.

We were feeling the love!

Show N Teach

In kindergarten one of the big things they do is they get to be the teacher ( for 10 min) and teach there classmates something they know how to do.  We decided to have her teach how to make chocolate suckers. So we practiced filling the molds, putting in the sucker sticks and tapping out all the air bubbles, many many times!

I thought chocolate teddy bears were taking over the house at one point. On the day of her Show N Teach she was SOOO excited!

She got right up there and started out with a great big

Good Morning Class!!! ( Totally unscripted) Miss Mellor and I were trying hard to keep a straight face!


It was hilarious! She then taught them how to make suckers!! She did such a good job!! I am glad she got Ryans Genes on this one because I would of started crying ( just like one little girl did.. It was sad)






After she was done they had a little question/ answer session! They asked her How she learned to make suckers and other little questions. Someone then asked her  why she wanted to make them... Her answer  was because I LOVE TREATS!!



Her favorite part was handing out a sucker she had made to everyone in her class!



She did a great job!
