Early February we had a no school day (well, actually, Ella had homework to do because in our district, they have flex learning days). But, anyway, she and Jay stayed home and good thing because we got 12 inches of snow in Farmington! WOWSERS! The wind picked up as well, so our snowman started to look a little disheveled. I left work early but still had a scary drive home that afternoon!
Superbowl weekend, Jay was on an ice fishing trip, so Ella and I hung out some and then she spent time at a birthday party. We made our annual oreo football dip and for dinner we made....TOTCHOS!! They were a HUGE hit. Delicious. Took longer to make than traditional nachos because you have to bake the tots first, however, it was worth it.
We had a good time enjoying the game and a few of the commercials (many of them were kind of duds). The halftime show - Chris Martin was bouncing too much and I wish he would just stand up straight!! Ella loved the halftime show and spent time dancing with Beyonce!!
For Valentine's this year, Ella brought fruit snacks with a little tag I found via Pinterest. Here is the link. I'm "berry" glad we're friends. They had a little Valentine's exchange and party in her classroom and she ate way too much candy that day!
Valentine's weekend, Ella had a sleepover at Grandma Jolyn and Papa Paul's house. She kept referring to this as her "trip" and she had a good time. I was really sick with a sinus infection so Jay and I didn't really do much. I think I spent about 80% of the weekend sitting on the couch reading or watching TV. It was kind of nice, but too bad that we had to waste away the weekend!! Our Valentine's Dinner: Chipotle. HA!
Before Ella left for the weekend, she opened her valentine from Jay and I. She got her first Kids Bop CD (she knows just about all of the songs!), a new charm for her charm bracelet and a Shopkins. :)
And now it's already the middle of February! Ella came home yesterday with Pink Eye. Neat. We spent a good portion of the night waiting at urgent care and then driving to get the eye drops. She is home from school today but hopefully she will be back at school tomorrow to celebrate the 100th day of school!!
