February Love

Riley had he Lord Baden-Powell Scout Banquet. All the cubs were asked to make a cub themed cake. This was Riley's idea. So Chad and Riley made the cakes. I shaped it into the triangle. I attempted to make a fondant, but it didn't work out super well, but it looks alot better than if I had just iced it. I outlined the wolf for Riley, and he filled it in. I think it looks awesome!

He won best wolf cub themed cake! Yay for him! He felt really good that he won something. There were totally amazing cakes there, but ya, I think ours was awesome!

Here is his sock puppet that he made, and they put on a little show for us. It was fun!

And now they are having a knot tying contest. He got 4 out of 7 right. I was proud of him. I try to cherish these scout moments, since I wont have any more of these "boy" events!

FAMILY DAY! We had a blast! My Dad was up from Lethbridge so we all, including Crystals family went to this most wonderful place called Cardel Place! It is right by my house and it is awesome. Here is Emily, Hailey and Taylor looking down on the swimming pool that we went to! They have this "river" that pushes you around in. Hailey just about fell asleep in it! I was just holding her in her lifejacket, and it just about rocked her to sleep! So fun!

Before swimming, we all went to this huge gym that had so much to do. Me, Chad, Crystal and Jonathan played badminton while the kids just ran. There was a little obstacle course set up, and floor hockey. Here Chad and Jonathan are playing some Basketball!

Then they set up this huge bouncy slide thing. Now THAT was fun. The kids went around and around in it having so much fun! It was so cute to watch them play in it. Even the adult had fun!

Here is Hailey jumping on the little trampoline on the obstacle course.

And Valentines Day. We went to buy the valentines day cards, but they were sold out from every store!! So, we made our own! The kids actually loved this way better. They decorated their cards all day. I cut out 72 heart cards and they stickered, and bedazzled them all! It was really great!
