Every year the little holidays tend to get bigger and better....because of how much fun it is for the kids! Valentine's Day fell on a Sunday, so we celebrated on Saturday night. We hired (2) babysitters to come over for the night and watch EIGHT kids while the adults went out for a nice dinner. The kids and I were able to decorate and make fun snacks during the day. I have to admit that I was a little scared to see what the house was going to look like once we made it back home...but it was basically spotless! They had spent the majority of time playing the Wii and watching movies.
After naps on Sunday, we hid envelopes for the kids with a little bit of money in them. We told them they had 5 minutes to get dressed and be in the van....we were heading to Toys-R-Us and they got to buy anything they wanted. Two hours later, we came home with all kinds of treasures. It was so funny to watch each of them strategically try and stretch their dollars as far as they could.
