Let the conversation hearts pour!!

I have been the not so best blogger here lately. For some reason I feel so busy, or busier than I'm used to. I told Jason the other day that I don't know if it's having a third child or what, but I am tired every night when it's time for bed. I remember when we lived in the Plainview apartments and in Houston I was a night owl and always full of energy and spunk. Now a days I barely stay awake for Jason to come home from the 2nd shift at work so him and I can visit about our afternoons/evenings. So yup, I am a tired mommy. :) Valentines was 2 days ago and it was pretty interesting. Jason was actually off that day (something that RARELY happens because his work schedule usually conflicts) and I was all set and ready to make this a "date-worth" Valentines day for the both of us. HA! Little did I know that I am not in control. I should of figured that being Valentines Day and being that most everyone has already gotten their income tax return in Plainview, that every nice (limited amount) of restaurants would be packed by 6 o'clock pm!! I really wanted to eat dinner at Tokyo's but unfortunately their waiting period was 45 minutes to an hour. We had planned on going to the movies after dinner to watch "The Vow." So 45 minutes to an hour wasn't going to work for us. So we ended up eating at The Cotton Patch. I was so excited we finished dinner at 7pm because the movie started at 7:20pm. We get to the movies and in line to only be told they're sold out!!! Oh I could of just thrown a fit for reals!! I was soooo bummed out that my date with Jason didn't go as planned. :'( Mostly because it's not often that we are able to celebrate occasions like this. We did end up going to the Brew together, it was Jason's first time, and we had nice conversation and snacks. I was happy, and at the end of the night I knew it turned out just perfect. Earlier that day the kids had their Valentines parties for the classes. Man is that not some work!! I really was impressed with Tyler's classroom party because the momma's went all out! They had the cafeteria tables decorated with cute Valentines stuff and plate arrangements for each kid with their name on it! I loved it and the snacks were pretty rewarding themselves. I took 24 chocolate covered strawberries and I wish I would've snatched one up but I didn't have a chance to. Taylor was being pretty ornery and trying to take Tyler's candy, cupcake and food. So Jason and I were pretty flustered with little Bruiser. Tyler seemed to of enjoyed it though and that's all I need to be content and happy. Brooke's classroom had banana splits and they played some cool, fun games. She decorated a milk jug for her Valentines "bag" and I thought it was stinkin cute! Over all I think we had a pretty successful day participating in Brooke and Tyler's classroom parties. That is all that matters to me, is that Jason and I are just there for them. Supporting them. Gosh I wish we could be perfect parents, but I know we never will be. All we can do is strive to live towards the perfect example Christ gave us. It all boils down to living for our Savior and seeking the blessings that come with.  I love my Jason, my Brooke, my Tyler and my Taylor and I don't need Valentines day to be the only day I show them. :)
