Levi had his first birthday!!

Valentine's Day
Breakfast - red heart pancakes
Candlelight dinner and scavenger hunt to find their valentine's from mom.
and.....
...a wonderful surprise from Makell! Special delivered, chocolate covered strawberries. They were HUGE. She knows my true feelings about Valentine's Day. And ironically, Adam worked late and missed our special dinner. So, my feelings are still the same, but at least I had a yummy treat to eat all by myself! Love you Makell!

The stake assigned our ward the Valentine's Day dance again this year. The theme we went with (sort of recycled it from our wards Christmas party) was "hawaiian." We did an ice cream sundae bar and hawaiian decorations. The pictures don't do it justice. It looked pretty cute.
McKinley decorated "Mt. Hunkahunkaburninglove" So cute! The DJ's set up a fog machine by the volcano and had fog coming out during the dance. Our bishop saw that and about died. A few years ago, a fog machine at a ward Halloween party set off the fire alarms and it was a big mess. Luckily that didn't happen this time.

I'm not sure exactly when we went and did Laser Tag with the youth, but it was fun :)

A random picture of us doing a project to pass the time on a cold winter's day. Paper mache pinatas. Fun, but super messy!

Noah's first Pinewood Derby. He designed it and dad cut it out.
His car looked great and it ran pretty well. He didn't get first and he didn't get last. I thought it was a pretty good night!
All the boys did a great job and had really good sportsmanship.

We had a few days in Feb. where it was warm enough to hit the ice park. Loads of fun!
Last but not least, Tamera taught me how to make bread. Thank you Tamera! She has a great recipe that has no eggs in it! I spent an afternoon at her house watching, helping and learning after my first try was a horrible disaster. In this picture the loaves were a little flat, but it tasted yummy. My goal was to sign off a personal progress experience. After about a month of trying the recipe once a week, I felt pretty good about learning a new homemaking skill.
