February Love and Celebrations

A warmer February was welcomed, as the kick off to birthday season began in my family.  Both Lauren and Adalyn are just a day a part so we celebrate together.
There is always a cousin circle during the gift time.
Handmade cards of love.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The kids have never gone to a school dance and Shiloh was all about it this year, so we went as a family.
At least the youngest of the two (Zoe would have loved to have joined us if allowed).
The blacklight decorations, with all the glow in the dark items were a lot of fun!
Ezra's favorite thing, and main reason to be there, the snacks.
Shiloh was often busy running around with her friends, but I was able to get a few photo opportunities.
My bud.
Shiloh got into the dancing, too!
While it was more snacks for Ezra!
Move photos with friends and cousin!
We stayed until the very end, till the lights came on, Ezra could do the worn without fear of being stepped on, and the dance floor was tore up!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Valentine's day seems to be a big deal for the littles, and Shiloh started making individual pun cards for each of her classmates and friends weeks prior.  She was very thoughtful in coming up with things that would be individualized for each person and included candy.  I wished I had photoed some of them, as they were well done and very clever.  She, also, made an adorable box for her cards at school. 
Shiloh, also, enjoys decorating and getting presents for her siblings.
And some for her parents as well.
The morning brings such joy for them to see everything laid out.
They loved the best yogurt breakfast to date, thanks to Beach's help.
Shiloh was all ready for school.  As an aside, I brought home a balloon banner we had used at work, and she enjoyed all the extra fun energy around.
That night we enjoyed dinner out with Beach's parents.
My turn...
And a dessert platter at home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The celebration continued the next day at the library, where they had Valentine's bingo and decorated cookies.
I do let them know that they have a choice in what photo I use, but when this is all she gives me...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Homeschool skate day and Zoe was happy to have one of her friends there.
The other littles had the day off from school, so they joined us, too. 
It was a first for Ezra and he worked on it until he became proficient.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I started a new thing, a new very intense thing.  Working out in an infrared sauna!  It is amazing for detox, which is something I have been working on for some time,  especially with battling all the mold.
Thankful to get in some joy with all these moments, including Shiloh's Yes Day, as construction with the house has taken up much of our time!
