{Super}week

I can't believe it's already February!  What happened to January?  What happened to Winter?  I'm not complaining...at all... but a little bit of snow might be nice...  however, in Indiana...it's possible we may still get that chance even well into May! 

Speaking of Indiana...I feel like since this has been one of the most {super}weekends of the year... and it has literally been happening right around the corner... I should at least mention something about all the fun festivities in our hometown!  Even though I didn't go anywhere near downtown Indy... it has been fun watching all the hype and excitement on the local and national news stations like the Today show and Jimmy Fallon!  The rumor in the street {or on facebook...same thing!} was that there were major celebs really right around the corner here in our town staying for the Super Bowl... Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt, Ryan Gosling, John Travolta?  True?  Maybe...maybe not... but it was fun to think I might've run into them at Walmart or something, ha!  It was fun to see the Giants win even though I didn't really have a preference...since one of the Mannings was able to win!

Last week also marked another {super}year of blogging!  I completely missed my blogoversary on January 31st!  It has been three years since this day...and so many wonderful memories, changes and new additions have been added to our lives!  I have met so many wonderful friends...captured so many fun memories and am so thankful to have this blog to look back on!  {especially since just yesterday little miss Ellie took a swift kick to my laptop and knocked it right off my lap...literally crashing my computer...right to the floor!  Hopefully everything can be recovered from the hardrive...like all my pictures!  But...I told Dan...I have all the major pictures on the blog...no worries!  Now, if the blog crashes...I better finish getting those books printed!}  It has been a great place to preserve our memories and activities...and I just know that the kids will love me for making them endure my endless photos!

Speaking of love... we finished the kids' Valentine's cards this weekend!  Alex wanted to do the same thing we did last year...and Emily wanted to try it this time too!  {aww...they look so much younger last year...boohoo!}

{this was one of the pictures that I didn't use for her card, but I thought she looked supercute in her braids...and I want to document that she let me fix her hair!}

She was also dolled up because she was on her way to a Valentine's party with her American Girl dolls...Emily and Kit!

I was {super}tired Monday morning staying up way too late watching the live Jimmy Fallon Show Sunday night ...yawn...

...but I am always thankful for the beautiful morning sunrises that God allows me to witness...



And...somebody is sadly getting too {super}big for her britches...

...she thinks she can fit into her babydoll stroller...and she is always {super}determined to keep trying!

It's been a great week...and the next {super}event on the horizon is somebody's eighth birthday... I'm not sure I'm {super}excited about that... yet...  ...sigh...

But I am {super}excited to tell you that even though I'm late in celebrating my three-year blogoversary...

...it's not too late to leave me a {super}comment for a {super}prize... a $10 Target gift card!  Even though I'm trying to steer clear from that sinful place in order to allow our kids a chance at college someday ...sigh...

...doesn't mean you can't splurge for yourself!  I will pick a winner on Valentine's Day!

Have a {super}day!
