Ten Things to Smile About in February
1. Getting all dressed up, amazing dinner and entertainment and raising money for a good cause.
2. Our Fancy Family Valentine's Dinner
3. Going out to sushi with Eric- we have to go out for it at least once a year, usually we go around Valentine's.
4. Having good friends to car pool with for school pick-up; very sad a couple are moving away- but wonderful to have good friends to do this with.
5. This giant ball and how much fun we had with it.
6. Lucas getting first place in the district on his science fair project!
7. The fact that Ryder's soccer practice will only be one day a week! That means only 3 days of soccer instead of 4, that extra day at home truly is nice.
8. Surviving Eric being out of town for a few days-- always fine until bedtime, just too quiet without him.
9. Alex doing better and better at her soccer games-good to see some of her old spark and confidence come back.
10. The fact that I actually began journaling again. I obviously blog, but had not written in my personal journal since 2009! I only had two kids last time I wrote; but I am going strong now.
What made you smile this month?
I really really love your Valentine's Dinner tradition! Also - I'm way impressed about the journaling. It's something I have struggled to do consistently my whole life. I miss soccer! But I'm definitely glad Science fair is over for the year!
ReplyDeleteOh, Emmy. Not much. I had that stupid root canal and then poor Rosie had the headache from the lumbar puncture. Bad month for us. Love that you got a date night and that sushi looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteI always love Sushi!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. It is so uplifting to focus on the positive and sushi night is one of our favorite date nights.
ReplyDeleteLooks like February has been a great month for you!
ReplyDeleteI love this post! It's always so good to remember the GOOD things that are happening each month instead of focusing on the bad. It looks like you had a fun February!

ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to get Liam one of those giant balls. He would LOVE it. Lexie's friend had one and they played in it all the time!
That ball looks so fun! Any month that has sushi in it is a good month! I wish I'd done a fancy Valentine's dinner with my fam. We did do a special breakfast of heart shaped pancakes, but that dinner looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteYou look like you're on the red carpet in that first picture! Congrats on Lucas' first place!! And yey for nights at home!
