Valentine's Day 2012

Here are some cute pictures from our Valentine's Day celebrations.  Here we have Elijah and I at his sweet little Valentine's Day party at his Mother's Day Out class.

 Here is Elijah with his little friend Atlee.

 This year on Valentine's Day weekend, my sister Kim and our brother-in-law Jim came down to Dallas from NYC.  They sang some New York style tunes at a gala in Plano for my grandparents, Mammas and Poppop.  But before the fancy gala we had to go have a lobster dinner at Lefty's.  Here Cary is with my Mom and a lobster.  :)

 Kim and Mom!

 Jaron and I with Uncle Jim!

 Uncle Jim is always lots of fun!

 Here Kim, Mom and I are getting dressed for the Plano gala. Mom had a make-up artist and a hairdresser get us ready for this.  It was so fun!!

Happy 2012!!

We spent New Year's Eve at a ROCKIN' Jackopierce show at the Highland Park Village Theater.  Complete with dinner, the JP show, champagne, and a dance party afterward, this was a night to remember!

Cary and I sporting our shoe choices.

  Me with my friends Tiffany and Taylor

Me with my friends Sarah and Corrinda

 Me with my friends Lindsay and Julie...yes, we had so many wonderful friends there!!

Cary and Jack traditionally give out trophies to guests who bought tickets first, who have bought the most tickets, etc.  This time I got one for attending every event!  Yay me!!

 Here are some highlights from the first few days of 2012...Jordan learning to do a pogo stick...

Jaron building a playhouse out of the box of the playhouse that my mom gave them for Christmas... 

 Elijah covering his body with as many stickers as possible....

Also here is a project that Jordan did this year- it's a shadow box with a mini movie theater inside!

 This is the robot made out of trash that Jaron and Cary made during the week the dads visited the preschool.

Here are Jaron and Elijah playing with "Grandad's toys," which Grandmom and Grandad so graciously  gave us when they moved at the beginning of this year.
