Hockey Games & Valentines Day

We've had some fun times in the last two weeks.

First our grandson Carsen got to play hockey in between quarters of the winter hawks game at the Rose Garden in Portland. He's 7 and is getting better every year at the game and skating. Paul's Dad, brothers Tyson, Sam, and nephew Jackson, niece Samantha , Paul, and I went to the game. We had a great time and Paul loves to watch the game and see the mascot.

Then Valentines day came and we all know how Paul loves holidays. He had to get High School Musical Valentine cards and make them out for everyone and then he made his dad and I cards. He got to go to his aunt's house for dinner and a movie, which he got from mom and dad for valentines day. Madagascar 2. He watched that with his favorite Uncle Phil. He packed up his baby Micheal, along with the play pen and diaper bag to share the evening with his Aunt and Uncle. When I picked him up from his aunt's all he could say was how good his dinner was. She is a pretty good cook.

Then Valentines night after Mark and I had gone to bed Paul got my fake flowers of red and white roses and put them on the kitchen counter with a homemade card saying he loves me more. We have a little saying going back and forth with him saying he loves me more and I say I love him to the moon and back again. So I had that wonderful surprise for me when I got up this morning.

Now that Valentines is over we're getting ready for Easter so Paul was busy decorating my living room window with gel rabbits, eggs, and chicks. He has already decorated his living room so I guess now it's our time. He's ready to dye Easter eggs so we're trying to put a hold on that for a little while.

We have been doing weight watchers at home for all four of us as I have mentioned and Paul is doing great. He has won three of the last six weeks but this week he gained a pound after we discovered he has been sneaking food so going to have to keep a better eye on him. He goes Tuesday to the Heart Dr. and I'm sure she is going be happy with him as he has lost 25 lbs since last year.
