Pinteresting my head off

I took down my Valentine stuff and made these fun things I found on Pinterest for St. Patrick's day. 

Dave's 55th birthday and our 30th Valentine's Day together

Dave didn't want his usual birthday breakfast in bed this year.  He wanted to go to the gym when we woke up.  So when we got home I made him a fritatta since we are all about getting protein after a workout.

The next day we had his birthday dinner.  Instead of a cake he wanted Ashley's pudding filled cupcakes.

A few days later - Valentine's Day - I put this on Dave's side of the bathroom mirror.

He gave me this cute bouquet.

We made each other breakfast.  He made me an over easy egg and toast.  I made him French toast.

And thanks to my new friend, Pinterest, I was able to make these and drop them off on the doorsteps of the ladies I visit teach.

Cookie Day 2012

Once again it was our annual Valentine's cookie baking day.  It was only the Stowers gang and me this year, but we still had a great time.

Lily is the ultimate crafter.  She made several Valentine crowns while the cookies were baking.

I told Jack to hold up his cookie so I could get a picture of it.  This was all that was left. 

Then Jack wanted to take a picture of me.  Pretty good, just a little bit blurry.

Holly and Livie.

Maybe they don't look professional, but they sure did taste pretty good.

Last week

Last week Holly, Ash and I made some pinterest crafts.  All 5 kids watched Max and Ruby and ate their little snacks.

Here is one banner we made:

 This is another banner I hung across the fireplace in my bedroom:

I also added a few things to the mantel in the living room. Thanks for the ideas, pinterest!

Last Saturday my amazing nephew, Colby, was baptized.  He has always held a special place in my heart.  Love him!
