A Terrific Week

So Will's tooth was not broken (hooray!).  Now we wait to see if it dies.  It is still movable and sticking out funny.  The dentist said that it will strengthen and heal or die.  Luckily, I LOVE LOVE LOVE our dentist and Will left happily waving to all the ladies.  The dentist chair was filled with new gadgets and Will was in heaven.  He let the dentist in his mouth and loved the wild turkeys exploring outside the office window.  He is struggling eating and not sleeping as well but this should pass quickly. 

We are also still healthy!  I feel like jumping up and down.  It is so nice to be healthy, well-rested, and somewhat normal. 

We had a fabulous Valentine's Day.  A little party for the kiddos, a fun dinner with the family, and generally just a good day.  It is so much fun to celebrate.  As she was getting in bed, Reagan asked me if we could have a party again.  She said maybe we could celebrate spring coming and then she drew some decoration ideas.  She is so much fun and just like her dad.  Always up for a good time. 

Speaking of Marcus, he was in charge of an adult Valentine dance for our church this past weekend.  He did a great job planning it and it was so much fun!  Several people commented on how much fun they had.  There was karaoke (with something like 4000 songs to choose from), a DJ, and latin dance instruction with a little performance.  It took a little while for people to warm up but they did and it was fun.  Marcus was the life of the party.  At one point I said to him, "You act like this is your own personal party!"  All he did was smile. 

These were the girls valentine's this year.  They added a sucker of course!

And my adorable valentine boys. 

Now all I need to do is get ready for our big jaunt out west.  Me and the kids, three plus weeks, and several relatives.  It should be very fun and very tiring.  I really like my husband and enjoy his company and assistance with our family.  If not for some strong feelings in needing to visit some people, I would never do this.  Regardless, come the 28th we are off.  I have to admit I am excited.

you're leaving this month? Have fun and eat some Cafe Rio for me! Jojo just hit her tooth as well and needed a trip to the dentist. Her gums still looks scary. What's up with that?
btw, the ward boundaries are being changed. Maple Grove, Elm Creek and Shingle creek got called to a special meeting.

What did you do at your Valentine's Party? Sounds FUN!
Utah huh? I'm jealous. Hope you have lotsa fun even though you'll be on your own.
