A Girl and Her Balloon

Eva has been carrying around her Valentine's balloon EVERYWHERE for the last couple of days. These are a few pictures we took right after we gave it to her. 





 Look at her hugging the string, so cute.







I love how little kids show total unbridled joy for the simplest thing. Believe me, nothing can get between this girl and her balloon. 




Valentine's 2016

We had such a great Valentine's Day this year...well it was more like a Valentine's weekend. Morgan and I went out to a great Italian restaurant here in Charlottesville on Friday. We got babysitters for both kids and it felt great to go out, just the two of us. I loved the food and the ambience of the restaurant and it was such a pleasure to share it with my forever Valentine.

On Sunday morning, I got the kids up and got them dressed for church in their most festive attire, so of course we had to take a few pictures.


This is Eva tickling Jack. She squints her eyes and says, "tickle, tickle" in a high pitched voice. It's adorable. Jack reacts about like this every time...




We decorated the table with cards, flowers and chocolate and of course we got Eva her very own helium balloon. She is in love with it.

Morgan drew this handmade Valentine. Can you believe that! I love it.


Also, I love the roses he picked out. 



Jack enjoyed the morning just like this...
