Valentines Week Activities

The week before Valentines Day was full of school activities which the kids were very involved in.

There were dress up days, hall decorating contest, cake contest, fashion show assembly and Mr/Mrs Irresistible.

Michael was in the fashion show as Edward Cullen from the Twilight series.

The sophomores won the fashion show, hallway decorating contest and got 2nd in the cake contest.

Can we say Competitive?

Michael was also the sophomore class Mr. Irresistible.

So..where was Joseph during all of this?

Sadly, even though he had been the main force behind Valentines Week, aka Control Freak the main event, the fashion show, fell on the same day as Swimming Districts.

So, Joe was swimming...fast enough to make the finals...as the only underclassman represented from our entire district in his two events...and he qualified for state!

Tim and Michael went to the dance...with dates.

I just love that they both choose girls with high standards and good values.

Aren't they cute?

Since I didn't feel like buying the kids things that Valentine's Day that they didn't really need...

I made them cookies instead.

Cuz, everyone NEEDS cookies...right?

The best sugar cookie recipe EVER!

Any cookie recipe that combines both cream cheese and almond extract is a keeper.

Happy Valentine's Day!
