Valentine's Day, 2016

  Happy Valentine's Day!  Last night (exactly 2 weeks after our fire) was the best night we've had so far.  Feels good to be having fun again!!

 First up, opening up presents from Mrs. Richter!

Peeps!

Allie was so excited when she saw this.  We had one of those at the "broken" house.

Here she is laying on the stuffed animal - very happy!

Yum yum

Very sweet card!

Love this idea!!!  We got the book and the stuffy!

Jelly beans!

Our table and chairs are back from our house -- they had to be cleaned over and over and over again but they are good as new!!  Finally had a nice dinner (with nobody crying!) at our table!

More Selfie Stick action...

So happy to have our table back!

 We also got our Penn State table back --  just in time so we could make our cupcakes for the twins' party at school!  It was actually a two night event as we had made the batter Wednesday night...I then put the cupcakes in the oven so the kittens wouldn't get into them during the night.  Mike had to pre-heat the oven today to make dinner that our friends, Theresa and Laz brought over....Yup -- he forgot the cupcakes were in the oven (covered with Saran wrap!) until it was too late.  Oh, well -- we got to make a mess again!

Pink pink and more pink!

 And finally, the twins are LOVING having a second floor.  Here they are throwing things over the side.  It all had to come down anyway, right??

Happy Valentine's Day!!!
