Happy Valentines Day!

Yesterday was valentines day so dad made each of us children a goodies basket. the little children got coupons to McDonald's for free stuff like a hamburger,apple dippers,or a drink.The children were soo excited with their stuff!Mom and Dad gave me and Noah goodies tins with Starbucks chocolate covered coffee beans,espresso flavored truffles.They are really good! Mom and Dad went to a sweethearts dinner with other family's in our church and they had a great time.I made a special dinner for all us children who stayed home.We had steak,garlic potatoes,salad,and brownies with chocolate covered strawberries on top. We all had such a great time! Here are some pictures,so you can see all the great stuff we enjoyed!!

New Years Day

On New Years Day we went to our friend's,Ruth and Lois's house in Port Henry,NY.
The Longinos,Demerys ,and McLaughlins were also there.
We had a wonderful meal and then played games all afternoon.
We also ice skated and played hockey on their homemade ice rink.
In all we had a great time with lots of friends!
Here are some snapshots of our hockey game.
P.S. THANK YOU to Ashley Longino for the pictures!
The haze you see is from the cold weather,it was in the single digits!
