Happy (belated) "Valentime's" Day. That's what Brynn still calls it. ;-) Dana and I didn't really do anything to celebrate V-day ourselves, but Brynn had a fun day of exchanging valentines with her classmates and opening the awesome gifts she received from family and friends.

Brynn's preschool teacher and current baby-sitter left a bunch of goodies in our mailbox for Brynn, including these awesome earrings! |

Brynn got a card and chocolate Reese's heart from Daddy. She is reading the card from him and surprised that it was from him. ;-) |
Earlier this week Brynn was making our a list of what she wanted to do V-day evening. Mostly the list consisted of 'dressing up.' I wasn't quite sure what that entailed and warned her I currently don't fit into any of my 'dress-up' clothes. No matter, I was still outfitted with a make-shift blanket-cape and my own crown. I was the queen after all! Daddy was the king who double as the royal steed. Brynn was the princess, of course. It was a fun evening and Brynn had us laughing the whole time. She was a proper princess, talking in some hybrid accent of British and Southern. Ha. Her horse would get a little riled on her at times.

Today Daddy went snowmobiling, so Brynn and I went to the Kiwanis Pancake Karnival at the Fargodome. As we were walking up to the ticket counter, a lady offered us her extra tickets. How nice! So, we got in for free. It was really busy there and they announced at 10:00 am that they had served 2000 people. The other attraction besides the pancakes and sausage was the bouncy games for the kids. Brynn was most excited about that, of course. However, not sure if that area was a black hole for children or what, because three kids were announced as missing/separated from their parents in just the two hours we were there. And as we were about to make our way out of the bouncy house area, it looked like another little boy was lost, too. He kept circling around the one game alone, saying 'mama? mama?' Luckily Brynn and I were able to stick together the whole time. Yikes!

About to dig into that chocolate heart from Daddy. |
Brynn wanted to go outside with her umbrella today. I think she is trying to think Spring with her Easter bucket here and umbrella, but that seems pretty hard to do trudging through all that snow. I don't think she did anything else out there but walk around in the snow with that umbrella. I thought she looked like Mary Poppins of the North.
