Valentine's Day

Ben picked special gifts that would really make each kid feel loved.  Alison got a new "American Girl"  named Arizona with a York Peppermint patty.  Colin got a Spiderman accessory kit and M&M's. And   Eli got Minecraft Legos and skittles.


This picture is blurry because Alison would not stop jumping up and down, she was so excited.
 


Alison put a lot of time and effort into making each one of us a Valentine.  Ben's had lift up flaps:
 

She made the boys one with their favorite character on it and wrote them a sweet note.  They didn't appreciate it as much as they should, but they said "thank you" and it all melted my heart.
 

My Valentine from Alison came with a flower and some scratch-n-sniff stickers and Ben got me 3 different kinds of chocolate, so I was a happy girl.

 Alison has renamed her doll to Lillian, but is excited to show her real life Arizona :)
