Happy V-Day!

     Happy Valentine's Day!  We took a non-traditional approach this year since Mike had class tonight.  I made a special dinner and dessert for dinner last night and enjoyed just a quiet evening at home.  Mikayla had practice tonight, and after it we headed to the mall to Build-A-Bear.  Each of the kids got a new bear and an outfit.  It's always fun to see them get so into the process of making the bear from stuffing it to giving it a bath.  Noah waited patiently while Mikayla's bear got filled and when it was his turn he was so excited for getting the heart ready for the bear. One of my favorite parts is when you get to make the birth certificates.  I love hearing the names the kids come up with for their new bears.  Mikayla went with Aly (only can guess this is from a friend's name at school), and Noah went with Camo (he caught a camouflage bear).  Such fun!
