Happy Valentines Day 2009

To start off the Day....Tim is eating the cookies Tatem made him....go to Terriebeths blog to see how many sprinkles are on it.... her blog is me and my gang on the side of mine ;o) Even though he looks like they are sour he says they are really good!! And he loves the sprinkles!
We have a tradition in our family where the kids and now the grand kids get a rose and a little box of candy on the 14th of Feb every year...well we didn't get it taken care of in time to give it to them all at the same time so this year we decided to do a ring and hide type of thing.
The first house.....don't they look nice....

While I was trying to get to a spot where they could not see me so I could take a picture...this one snuck by me....but according to her mom she had a great look on her face until she realised it was me hiding there. So I snapped this picture of recognition dawning on her face. She is jumping up and down now!! ha,ha,ha
Come on everyone see what we got....
Wow this is cool...there is one for each of us....
Family picture time....the kids set their flowers on the floor in front of them, and me trying to get a close up of their cute little faces didn't even notice you could not see their flowers...oops sorry guys!
Take two and I missed them again!! Oh well I got all the people and that is the important thing.
House number 2 after a drive to someones work only to find out they are home now...what???
We see your camera....come out from behind there
Hi Grandpa...look what we got...notice TJ has his flowers already!!!
Not sure what Grandpa is doing but he sure has their attention...
Family Picture....Do you think Caleb likes his candy???
Take 2...Caleb look at the camera....yeah not happening...he likes the candy!
House number 3....we didn't do a ring and hide here....we just gave Ethan his...I'm not sure he liked it though ;o)
House number 4....
What ....is this for me....yahoo!!! Mean while Daisy is saying what are you so excited about...I don't see anything...
Caleb do you want your picture with me....what a face.
One more smile Tab this time you holding your own stuff
The last of the roses goes to Tim and Me....so we set the timer on the camera and right when it snaps...in come Daisy!!
Lets try it again....oops that was not the timer...Ha,ha,ha Surprised anyone???
Take 3...nope I was telling Tim to smile a real smile....no talking when camera snaps
Take 4...this one will have to do ...I'm tired and ready for bed...anyone surprised???
Ok this one we didn't want left out so we let her have her picture taken too.
Sorry we ran out of flowers, chocolate and money to give you all....but we do hope you had a great Valentines day no matter what you did...eat, sleep , read...etc..
Now I'm off to bed it is 10:30 what am I doing up so late is beyond me.....
Don't forget to look at the older post...I posted about 3 today...which would explain why I'm still up!!
Happy Valentines day!!!!

TJ, Ethan, Hollie and Caleb by the Torch....sorry I didn't see that you couldn't see , Hollie or Caleb because of the date...and for some reason it won't let me delete pictures like TB says I can.
Some bird...I guess I should know who it is but I don't....not sure who was more excited...the boys or Hollie...Ha,ha,ha
We went to get warm at the Brick Oven Beanery and Hollie told the boys that had to eat a little more before they could have their cookies..."Caleb take a bite of your potatoes"
Caleb...I want my cookie....Ethan just happy to drink his apple juice ;o)

You need to eat a little more...Ok says Ethan...I want my cookie says Caleb...
Mom says I can't have my cookie.
