At about 7:15 this morning, huge white snowflakes starting falling from the sky and it seemed like as the morning went on the snowflakes continued to get bigger. My 8:00 they looked more like cotton balls than snowflakes. It was absolutely beautiful. In true Oregon fashion, it had all melted by 10:00 though. Boo!!!

All the boys have wanted for over a year is a DS. That’s it…for every holiday and birthday that’s all they have asked for, but they knew they weren’t going to get one because we had made our case too about why they weren’t going to get one. Sean had also told them a LONG time ago that once Colm learned how to read that we would think about it. Well, Colm has been reading pretty well for a while now and they were still asking for one, so…let’s just say they got the best Valentine’s Day presents ever (in their opinion) and they were up and dressed at the crack of dawn today ready to play Pokemon.

I had so much fun at the boys’ Valentine’s Day parties. Luckily they weren’t at the same time so I could go and help out with both of them.

The boys will each be getting one of these for Valentine’s Day. I put them at their places at the breakfast table, so they’ll see them when they get up in the morning.
