Valentine's Weekend

Valentine's was a little different this year. It was over a weekend that Rylee had a soccer tournament in St. George. Karlee and Audree also had a cheer competition in Salt Lake City. Jake and I had to divide and conquer on this one. Jake headed down to St. George with Rylee and Spencer while I stayed home with Karlee and Audree. We did our things on Friday & Saturday and then I headed down to St. George with the girls as soon as the competition was over...it was a fun ride since both girls had taken 1st place at their competition and Rylee had scored in both of her games so far! We met up in St. George and hung out for the night and then went to church on Sunday (we will never forget the sweet old man in his light blue suit who lead the music in Sacrament meeting! He was very animated and was practically dancing...so funny!). After church we went hung out at the St. George Temple and enjoyed the sunshine then headed to my Grandma Brown's house for an incredible home-cooked Valentine's meal. She really out did herself and we were so grateful for her hospitality. The next morning we headed out for Rylee's final game. It didn't go as well as we would have hoped, but it was fun to be in the warm sunshine all together. Before we headed out for the weekend we did class valentine's for the kids...they were very personality-appropriate for all of them! Audree's were pencils, Spencer's were Yoda-inspired and Karlee & Rylee did lip balm valentine's for their friends. Spencer had to miss his class party to go to St. George (which really upset him), but I went to the party to help with the games and made sure to pass out his Valentine's and collect his treats from his classmates. It really was a fun weekend!
