Happy Valentines Day

I hope you all had a love filled day.  I was once again spoiled by my husband with fabulous food and beautiful flowers.  I love you Hyrum, thank you for everything.

Every morning Hyrum gets up at 5:30 to get ready for work.  He wakes me and the boys up around 6:30 so I can get them off to the bus.  I usually pour myself a bowl of  mini wheats with some skim milk for breakfast.  This morning, as I came into the kitchen, I saw that Hyrum had left this on the counter for me.  Fresh blueberries, homemade granola and yogurt.  What a wonderful way to start the day.  (H+E stands for Hano and Elle...in case you were wondering)

I am pretty sure the boys get more candy on Valentines than they do for Halloween!  They were pretty excited after school to get home and sort through all their treats.  They were even kind enough to share a few with Julian:)

What better way to end the day than with fresh tulips and a slice of chocolate cheesecake with raspberry sauce.  Sorry ladies...Hyrum is already taken:)

  3. Rachelle and Hyrum, thanks so much for sending us another letter! Last year's mysteriously disappeared before I could respond, so I'm glad you didn't mind sending a follow-up this year. ;)

    I'd love to send you our own update without boring everyone who follows the DiD blog, so if you have an email address I can write to, please contact me at max [a t] maxwaugh.com.

    Looking forward to your return to the States and the west coast. Hopefully we'll find a way to meet up after you're settled in!

    Max

  4. Rachelle, I love all your posts! I finally got caught up. You are amazing and look like you're having so much fun. The science theme party was great! I'm so glad you are making the most of your time in Germany, and neighboring areas. :)
