Here are some various things from February. Alex went with Nathan, Jared and some of the youth on an early morning temple trip. They had to be there a little before 7:00am, so it was a really early start. Nathan and Jared also had a multi-stake conference and dance in the afternoon and evening, so it was a long day. Nathan experienced his first slow dances and all the awkwardness of dancing with girls.
I went to the temple by myself the next Friday, when the kids had off of school.
I caught this cute moment between Jared and Kai - I guess they were having a bonding moment...
Jared went on a hike with his friend Jay on the Monday off of school.
Owen had a good time at a birthday party, putting a massive amount of sugar on his own decorated cupcake.
Alex was out of town for Valentine's Day (again), but he surprised me by buying some chocolates ahead of time and then sending me a message where they were "hiding." I may have consumed the whole box in 2 days.
We didn't spend much time on making Valentines this year, but printed off some Lego valentines for classmates. The kids aren't supposed to bring any candy, so the Valentines aren't very exciting. Maybe we should try to be more creative next year with toys or something attached to the Valentines. The kids don't do Valentines parties here either. No sugar, no food, no games or parties = no fun...
I made lasagna for dinner, to go along with garlic bread, green beans, Martinelli's, and sugar cookies. I never took a picture of the cookies, but here's an image from online to document the day...
