We actually took McKinley to the Children's Jubilee at the Heritage Center. This was a short concert that I was playing in. The whole event was planned for children and was meant to introduce fine arts and Symphonic music to kids. This was McKinley's first concert and she was pretty excited to be doing such a "grown up, ladylike," thing. Halfway through the last Piece, she fell asleep and was snoring in her seat. She didn't even wake up when the lights came up and everyone was clapping.
After the Concert, we went home and started getting McKinleys valentines ready and making dinner. (French Onion Soup and Monte Cristo sandwiches. Ummm!)
After dinner, we got McKinley dressed in a warm Bunny Jammie, and went out to deliver valentines. At first she was not really interested and just wanted to sit in the car while I ran the valentines to the door, knocked and ran to the getaway car. But once she caught on to how much fun it was,(like after we ran a stop sign in our haste to avoid being caught by Brandon and Amanda.) she was excited to be in on it. (We even put our hands the circle and yelled "Go Team!" before we did every delivery. Hahaha!) We let her do one by herself at Aunt Moonies, and it was so funny to see her running in her jammie back to the car, laughing the whole way. (Thanks Todd, for not opening the door and spoiling her fun. )We will have to learn how to be a little more discreet for next year.
Valentines is such a fun Holiday for me. And Thank you David for the Chocolate Raspberries, and the Two sets of Flowers. (Dad, I know that you were behind one of them. The secret is out. Thanks Mom for the cute valentines gifts!) And Thank you to JJ and Valeena for scaring the freaking crap out of us with the "cop knock." That might come back to haunt you so wait for it. j/k. We thought about coming out there and doorbell ditching you again, but we are scared of retalliation. Haha. You really have to practice the cop knock. Thanks for the cookies!
