A little Valentine's Day gift....

has totally turned into my "Awww..." moment of the day.

Tonight as Jason was going through Trey's backpack, he came across Trey's little SpongeBob journal that I had given to him for V-Day. Ty and him both LOVE to write, draw, and color, so I wasn't able to pass up the little dollar journals I came across at Walgreen's V-day morning as I grabbed goodies for my 5th graders. Trey has taken his to school and has been randomly writing in it in the back of the van. I hadn't gotten a chance to glance through it until tonight.....

The inside cover....(LOVE!)

Awwww...LOVE you too, Buddy!!!

I think someone has a little Kindergarten crush!

So, thanks Trey (ahead of time) for letting me peek through your journal. I know you'll someday be annoyed with me for putting this on the blog...but I just had to capture this moment.....

It's moments like these that melt my heart....

Neighborhood BBQ time...

Yesterday evening, after we got home from Grampy and Mi-Mi's house by Mark Twain Lake, we headed across to the street, where a few of our new neighbors were getting together. It was nice to meet those we hadn't gotten a chance to meet and put some names with the faces we've been seeing around...

Two of the three kiddos got a nap in on the way home and they were ready to BBQ it up....

Out on our driveway peeking across to the street to see everyone that was gathering....

Ty ready to roll...

Miss Tay-Tay hanging out...LOVE her Popeye face! She's always workin' away on that tooth of hers....

Meeting a few of the kids that live down the street....

All smiles...

What a nice get together and a fun way to spend our Sunday evening and cap off a great weekend!!! We are looking forward to meet those who couldn't make it....

And, after all that neighborhood fun, guess what Trey chose to write about in his journal last night?

Take a look for yourself.....

He definitely enjoyed his weekend....
