~ Day 8, 9 & 10 ~

Hello my Friends :)

I have fallen behind for the last three Valentines days...OOOPPPSSS!!!

It has been three hectic days here at my house. Of course things did not go as planned again :( I am thinking next year I may have to change a few things around on my Valentines Calendar.

Wednesday, Day 8 was suppose to be "Girls Craft Day" BUT that did not happen!
Tabitha ended up coming home from school early with a migraine and still a sore throat. So she ended up sleeping the whole afternoon and evening away. I had to wait for Abigayle to come home from school and head out for a couple of appointments that I forgot about. My little Daisy-Roo had her annual Vet Appointment. Took longer there then expected. But she came out with a clean bill of health other then a minor ear infection. Once we left there I had to run in and see the Tax Guy for a few questions. Doing a favor for my little Sister while she is in France. By the time I left there I had to head over to the Drug Store for some prescriptions and other things. Next thing I knew...it was time to pick up Hubby from work. And by the time supper time comes around we can no longer do crafts because then it's time for homework, baths...you get the idea.

It was gift day for them...which they loved! Here, Abby is getting some loving from her Daddy :)
I got her some packages of play dough. What kid does not like play dough. I thought these were neat because instead of coming in containers they came in sealed like bags. She was very pleased with her gift...
And then Tabitha received some papers and stickers for her Scrapbooking. She has been busy making her Album from when she went to Toronto last Summer.
So that brings us to Day 9 ~ "TeLl EvErYoNe HoW mUcH yOu LoVe ThEm"
and it was also a coupon day. Of course in a run of a day in our house "LOVE YOU" must be said a million times :))) My husband must call me about 10 times a day from work just to see what I am up to and before he hangs up the phone he always say's Love You. And a must in our house before the girls go to bed they say Love You. Even Abby has to give her big sis a kiss, a hug and love yous. It's to cute! What can I say...we are a loving family :) No really...I always said when I had a Family, it was very important to me to make sure we tell each other every day how much we love eachother.

For the coupons...Tabitha received a coupon for a "Movie Rental of her choice" and Abby received a coupon for "One Chore"...she say's she will clean her room. I wonder for how long...LOL. They both were really happy with their choices. How many kids do you know that love to clean??? I know...I know...I have weird kids...LOL. They kind of take after their mommy.

Since we did not get to do Crafts on Wednesday, I decided we better get our Valentines Cards done for Abby's classmates. After Christmas there are always some great sales. That is the best time to shop at times. I found these packages of 10 mini play dough for $1 a package. At the girls school we are NOT allowed to send in cookies, cupcakes or any treat of that sort due to high Allergies to Peanuts. So I thought for a fun treat for Valentines...the Kindergarden kiddies would love some play dough. Abby was the one who wrote everyone's names on the cards and packaged up the baggies. She was fed up at the end...she is to funny. She claimed that, that was hard work :)
Tabitha did not join us in the fun because she had to babysit right after school until 8 at night. She was happier babysitting because she was earning money :) Trust me when this girl knows that she can make some $$$ she is gamed. She loves watching her bank account grow. And that makes me happy...she is a saver. Hopefully she will stay this way as she gets older.

And now I bring you to today...Day 10 ~ "A Family Supper at Candle Light"
Believe it or not but there was no lights on...only the candle on the table and the one behind Abby's head. I guess my camera has one good flash...LOL
For supper we had some salmon cooked on the grill with peas and noodles. It was one YUMMY supper. Tonight was the last night for small gifts. So they were all anxious to open up and see what they received...
We are almost coming to a end to the 12 Day's of Valentines. And it just so happens my husband and I were speaking how over the two week period we spent more time having family suppers then in a long time. So my goal is that we have to have more family suppers then what we do. It is a MUST! No excusses.

I have been working on my sheep penny rug during the evenings...slowly...LOL.
But I will get some pictures so I can share with you. I can't wait to have it finished because I think it will be so nice. But then, where to put it...I am sure I will find that one special spot :)

Today I spent the whole afternoon tweaking :) I packed up ALL my snowmen and other winter items. I want Spring so I dug out a couple of Easter things. I will have to get hubby to dig out the other bins for me. I moved things here and moved them there. Tried this...tried that...I will have to snap some pictures tomorrow and share with you. I am pleased so far with how things are looking.

Tomorrow morning I am off to another infusion. I swear those every six weeks come up quickly. My body feels I am due though. So I will be there all morning till lunch time. And then on the road again at 4pm for another appointment that is at 5pm. So I probably wont get a whole lot done tomorrow. I guess I will see how I feel after my infussion if I will be up to more tweaking.

Tomorrow for Day 11 ~ will be Girls Movie Night . Hubby has to work until 9pm so after supper all three of us will curl up on the couch and watch a good movie. Should be fun :)

So until next time my Friends...
