Valentines Play Group

It was my turn to host playgroup.  So this morning, the girls and I had everyone over for a Valentines Party.

Let me back up a bit.... There is nothing BETTER than my grandma's cooking!!!  She make the best chicken and noodles.  Yesterday the girls and I went over so that she could help me make noodles to serve today.  I didnt do much of anything other than hold LK and watch.  Sarah Grace helped out.  I cant wait to try this on my own.  They turned out as good as always!!!  Thank you Grandma Edna for all of your help!
I got the house all decorated this week for the big party.  I still have my Christmas decorations out in the garage (hint hint Shaun) so I brought in one of the girls pink trees and decorated it for vday.  I thought it turned out pretty cute and perfect for the party. 
The kids decorated their own cupcakes and had lots of decorations to choose from.  They really enjoyed doing this and went pretty well considering their ages.
Instead of vday cards I monogrammed each child their own apron to wear while decorating cupcakes.

My sweet Sarah Grace.  She had a blast having all of her friends over to play in her room.  I am a little afraid to go in there to start cleaning...  This is a project for tomorrow! Ha!

I thought this was so cute.  Sarah Kate was buckling up the teddy bear in the infant swing.  She is such a little doll!

We  have decided to split the playgroup up into groups now that it has grown so much.  I think there were like 42 people here today!

Thank you so much for hosting such an amazing playgroup. Please tell your grandma how amazing her food was. I could have eaten the entire pan :) The boys had an amazing time.

Tracy you are officially Superwoman! The party/playgroup was fabulous! We had such a great time. The food was amazing! The decorations were great. And Kinley loves her apron. It could possibly be part of her outfit each day if she's dressing herself! It was so sweet of you to do that for all the kids. I hope you are getting lots of rest today. I know it is a little overwhelming with so many people in your home. Thanks!
