Valentine's Day Happiness

The girls loved their Valentines, we took the day off from school and went out to lunch.  Wesley and Will liked their chocolate stash with no frills and a sensible,  not too mushy Valentine card. But my goodness, for the girls I bought these fun stuffed animals, the only two they had,  from Walmart on the infamous Tuesday it snowed and shut our state down. I received email on my phone to immediately get Anna from her homeschool program, but I just had to go through the checkout and pay for all my stuff! They had a deadline time to get there and I would well beat that time so I made the decision to pay and not leave my necessities in the buggy, ....plus that would not be nice to Walmart.  Plus I had these massive stuffed animals looking at me with sweet faces and I loved them already.   I will never forget running through the parking lot with them and my other supplies in the buggy as fast as I could so the magical unicorn and pegasus would not get too wet.  I had tried to bag them, head stuffed into one bag and bottom end stuffed into another, but their middles were exposed. Have you ever noticed Walmart only has one size bags?  Had to hurry, hurry hurry.  Put my grocery bags under them and on them so they might stay covered, the snow really coming down,  then ran, ran, ran.....well worth the effort of keeping them safe and dry for the wonderful surprise on Valentine's morning.
Amy's pegasus, heart necklace, candy, Valentine socks, and bag for library books. Amy was a blur with excitement so no pics turned out of her first expression seeing all this.  Scott and I will remember though...priceless!

Anna got the same,  loved everything and was super excited over her unicorn but held still for a pose

Amy still happy excited 

Later in the day, socks and necklaces on..... holding their newest friends
