Valentine Extravaganza

Lori is so good at making holidays special and coming up with fun activities.  Elena loves it too and is also really good at it.  Lori was working every night on a different treat or activity for Valentine's Day.  Caitlyn and Elena wrote out the schedule with all of the activities. 

They started out trying to hit hearts on the garage with little balls.  Hallee and Wyatt were so excited about every activity.  Hallee was a little sad that she was missing her class Valentine party, but this more than made up for that!

After that we all wrote our name on a paper and then passed it around and we each wrote something we love about that person on their paper. 

Lori decorated the house so cute!  Matt used his Traeger to smoke pork, mac and cheese, garlic bread and asparagus.  It was so good!

After our early dinner Lori had the cupid shoot outside for the kids. Wyatt loved shooting the bow and arrow.  

It took Hallee a minute to get the hang of it, but she hit the target a few times after she figured it out.

We all had fun shooting for a while.

Matt was a great teacher.

After that Elena, Wyatt and Hallee drew with chalk outside. Elena drew a peacock, Wyatt drew a penguin with big muscles and Hallee drew a sloth. 

Later the kids decorated sugar cookies.  They loved that and they were so good.

We also had chocolate fondue for dessert.  Lori had lots of treats to dip in it.  We all loved that!

Elena and Caitlyn made this heart piñata and it held up really well.  All of the kids got to hit it a few times before Cody finally broke it open.

The last activity of the night was the heart drop.  They dropped conversations hearts from upstairs and tried to make them in the cups. Lori sure knows how to make things fun! Thanks for all of your hard work Lori!
