Mom and Dads Valentine's

Knowing we wouldn't be able to go out tonight Dan planned a fun date night last Friday. We went to Roy's in La Jolla then walked down by La Jolla shores and found a spot to snuggle (and maybe made out a little!) I am so grateful for a loving husband that knows it's important to go out on dates, enjoying some much needed alone time! Today he came home from lunch and brought me this beautiful bouquet of roses so I then gave him his bouquet of flowers (ie candy). He wouldn't let me give him his card because he said he has something more for tonight so he wanted to wait- so who knows what the surprise will be!

Be My Valentine...

Noah received his first Valentine yesterday. At his preschool party they enjoyed yummy cupcakes, fruit, bagels, heart jello jigglers and so much more. He was so excited to help mom make his valentines (which I copied from pinterest). Also at school he made a cute little box to hold all his valentine's from his classmates. Mom and dad received a cute valtentine made by Noah which said, "Although I keep growing An inch at a time, I will always be your Valentine!" So fun to watch Noah get so excited about Valentine's Day!

Disneyland

Ouch, buying annual passes for 3 makes for an expensive trip but so worth it, right?!

Ok this picture is creepy. The filter I used made his eyes look so blue, I so wish his eyes were really this color!

Starlight Circle

Oh how I love Christmas traditions. We walked Starlight Circle last night with the fam sipping yummy hot chocolate and enjoying all the pretty Christmas lights.

Who's Who???

I Love looking back and comparing these two boys. Love that they are wearing they same beanie at the same place, 2 years apart!

"The North Pole"

This was our second year going to see Santa but Grant's first. It is so awesome that someone is willing to let people in their home to enjoy all their Christmas decorations, free cookies and hot chocolate, and a free toy for every child. The boys loved it and I loved that they weren't afraid of Santa, Noah just climbed right onto Santa's lap. Noah is so into Christmas this year; he is always walking around singing Christmas songs, talking about baby Jesus' Birthday, and talking about getting his "bird hat" from Santa along with making sure to move the candy cane as we count down the days to Christmas. I love this holiday season and all the joy it brings into our lives.

Irvine Park

Last weekend we went to Irvine Park for our niece Jane's Birthday party. We had a lot of fun taking some family pictures for Christmas, playing with the leaves, riding the train & feeding the ducks.
