Happy Valentine's Day

Hi there.

It’s me Karen and I am alive and grateful. The last couple weeks have been absolutely crazy. CJ and I have just been so swamped (that is an understatement) at work. The kids have also been sick so that is always stressful and required CJ and I to juggle our work schedules to stay home etc. But it’s the weekend so let’s not talk about work…

and it’s Valentine’s Day!

Happy Valentine’s Day!!!!!. Kenzie has been counting down the days for the last 10 days. She was so excited last night. Of course CJ and I were woefully unprepared for the day so I ran out to the store yesterday to pick up some cards and small treats. Well lo and behold the Superstore had these amazing giant stuffed animals there (and they were only $29 each). I couldn’t resist. I got some strange looks as I was walking through the store with these two in the cart. It was totally worth it when I saw the kids faces this morning.



Excuse the state of our fridge




For Valentine’s day CJ made me a CD with a bunch of songs (by him). It’s awesome. It’s basically just him and his guitar. I LOVE it. I will take it in the car with me so I can listen to it all the time. He sounds so good. Thank you honey!!

This is what I look like pre-coffee in the morning


CJ got a new Xbox game 


Okay, I’ve just realized that I am WAY TOO tired to blog. So I will upload this now and then drink my coffee.

And here are some random pics taken over the last few days…
