29, Fish, Packers, Discovery, LOVE...

First things first, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! to my big bro Matt. It is his 29th birthday today. Wow, I can't believe it is his last year in his 20's. My brother is one of the most hard working, caring, funny, people I know. I am so proud to be your sister Dr. Snider :)

A couple weeks ago I took the kids to The Living Planet Aquarium. Sean and I went there a couple times when he was younger, we had an okay time, but we really had a super fun time this time. (I guess a few years makes a big difference) We are ready to go back again soon. I do have to admit though, I was so tempted to leave as soon as we got there because when we walked in, the line to pay was out the door (I even bribed Sean with a toy and told him we could go to McDonalds instead), but he was set on staying, which I am really glad we did because we had a really fun time and it was not even crowed like the huge line made it out to be.

The kidos and I loved the jellyfish

This year the entire family went to grandma Tschaggeny's house for the Superbowl. Just like all of grandmas parties there was everyone's favorite foods and plenty of it!! I really don't have a favorite NFL team, BUT... I do not like the Steelers!! I actually like the Packers pretty well so, I was super excited when Greenbay won. Grandma was the only one rooting for the Steelers (except aunt Penny could not let grandma cheer alone, so she cheered when ever the Packers made a mistake) We had a fun night of eating, watching football, laughing at the commercials, and playing with the kids.

I really wonder sometimes why I even bother

buying my kids toys, they were having so

much fun with the plastic cups.

(Note to self...plastic cups for their next birthdays)

Sean just won 5 bucks from the super bowl square game

and man was he excited. (Piper on the other hand

was not too happy she lost)

Carson loves grandmas dog

Last week we went to Mcdonalds and Discovery Gateway with our good friends the Warner's. The kids are all close in age and have an awesome time together. Rachel and I even managed to loose the car for awhile and had an adventure trying to find it in the parking garage (leave it to us!!)

Valentines morning we wake to this..........

.

.....hearts, confetti, and candy covering our front porch. My cute aunt and cousins decorated the house, thanks Sanovich's, the kids loved it!!!! I had to work on Valentines and my mom was out of town, so Tommy was able to take the day "OFF" (well from his regular job) and watch the kids. The boys had so much fun spending the whole day with daddy. I came home to the entire house decorated with hearts and cute sayings on them. It was such a fun surprise. I love my hubby and kids so dang much, they make each day waking up too!!! Hope you all had a marvelous Valentines day.
