I just realized I completely forgot to blog about Lincoln and Daniel's Valentines Day Party. They were so pumped about this party, and thankfully even though the actual party day fell on a snow day, their teacher made the party up on the next preschool day.
The week before we searched high and low at Target to get the perfect Valentines. Lincoln picked out Star Wars with a magnet and Daniel picked out Toy Story. For some crazy reason this non crafty momma volunteered to lead eight 3 & 4 year olds in a craft. So after Target we headed to Hobby Lobby to pick out a pre prepared craft. The easier the better. I ended up picking out(with all three boys picking out something totally different) a little smiley face heart to color and then tape on the scrunched up legs and arms! It sounds kinda creepy, but was pretty cute.
While at Hob Lob (as Greyson calls it), we also picked out "valentine's day school busses''. You see, this mom keeps all of her shoes in the shoe boxes, so there was no way that I was going to tape and cut up my precious shoe boxes. Seriously, I know. But the boys picked out really cute school busses to decorate for passing out valentines. 
I let the boys fill out their own valentines (the boys did AWESOME!). It took us a little while, considering I had to help write out double the amount of invitations that a normal family had to write! So we took a snack and play break and then headed back to work on our busses. It ended up that this perfectionist momma was WAY TOO picky about the placement of the stickers. I had to follow the instructions, because of course the other kids would care what the busses looked like! Ha! After spending nearly a hour attempting to perfectly decorate, we gave up and the boys went to go and play.
On the day the party was set for we recieved about six more inches of snow, so we had a snow day and postponed the party. But were able to have it the on the next day of class! Here's some pics:
