Not Just An Illusion

We went to see a Christian illusionist at church tonight. It was actually really cool. He even explained most of his tricks b/c he was big on us knowing that these things are just that...illusions, and that there is no real magic. A lot of his illusions incoprporated Biblical principles. We brought C in for the illusions (there was childcare and C had dinner with his friends) and he was really into it. He got called on stage to help out with one illusion involving ropes. The illusionist asked C to stretch out the rope, I guess to prove that it was real. He went on to tell the audience a story and C interrupted and said "I'm tired" really loud, the whole audience laughed at him. Then at another point the illusionist said to C "I assume you always obey your parents". C was quiet then looked at me and said really loud "but I don't, Mom." Again everyone laughed. It was really cute and I wish I had had my camera or video recorder.

Tonight we started reading a Read Along Bible that the kiddo's paternal great grandmother gave them. I think it will be really neat to read a chapter a night until we have read the whole Bible.

My Valentines

When did Valentines Day become the next Christmas Eve? I'm not complaining, I'm just saying my kiddos were gifted today like it was Christmas. Thanks to Uncle, Nanna, Boompa and Baba for all the cool gifts.

balloons from uncle
There was a slight battle over the packing peanuts from Nanna
Until C found a bag of chocolate and started dancing and singing "Oh yeah, oh yeah".

C listening to a musical card from Nanna, AP later took this card and ran, she liked it better than hers , it sang "who let the dogs out"


Hubs and I divided up our V-day shopping. I bought presents for my little man...

and he bought gifts for his little princess.

Stampin His Heart Out



C and I made his Valentines for his friends tonight. C is a very meticulous stamper. He pushed down so hard I thought the table might cave in, even after I repeatedly told him he didn't have to push that hard. They turned out great. His friends may not appreciate his hard work, but his Mommy sure does!
