THANK YOU Lynn & Debbie.......

Lynn and Debbie called and offered to watch our kids while Troy and I went out Saturday night (Valentine's Day). After lunch, we told the kids that we were going to head over to Nampa---they were thrilled!! Then when we told them we were going to leave them there for a few hours--they were ecstatic!! They LOVE going to Grandma Debbie's and Grandpa Lynn's!!

This is Kara when I told her she was going to go hang out at Grandma Debbies--she was tickled!!

We got to Lynn and Debbie's and just hung out for a little bit--it was fun, we even got to see Laurel--we hadn't seen her for quite awhile!! We visited for awhile, but then decided we needed to get on our way!! As I was getting Brooke in her car seat, Tyler went up to Troy and said, "I do not want to go with you guys, I am staying here!" Troy just laughed and said, "Well OK!!" FUNNY kid!!

We headed over to Boise, to the Dollar Theater on Overland to the 4:45 show--we were running a little late. We pulled in and parked--only about 8 minutes late--not too bad, because we didn't care about the previews!! We walked up and found 'CLOSED FOR CLEANING!!' taped to the door! What the..... Are you kidding me--closed for cleaning on VALENTINE'S DAY!! Ya they definitely were closed--we were a little chapped that they didn't post that in the newspaper!! They were reopening at 7:30, but there was nothing we wanted to see then, so we left--less than impressed!!! Oh well!!

We went to Taco Time for our Valentine's Day dinner--we both like Taco Time and they are not super expensive--they actually were having a 'deal' on their tacos and burritos and plus we had the place to ourselves!! It was just nice that it was the two of us and we didn't have the 'help' of our kids!!:) Then we went to Costco and Walmart and got our grocery shopping done. It was AWESOME having Troy's company (he NEVER shops with me) instead of the kids--thanks Debbie--it was actually fun even though it was just Walmart and Costco.

We also went to RC Willey and did a little bit of 'dream shopping.' Actually we were looking for Bunk Beds for the girls' room--but it was fun to look at the couches and kitchen tables--they had some nice things there!! Maybe someday! :) We never go there because its too crazy with all the kids--so it was pretty fun that we could just wander around and not chase kids!!

We got back to Lynn and Debbie's and the kids went on and on about how much fun they had!! They LOVE Grandma Debbie and Grandpa LYNN!!!

THANK YOU so much Lynn and Debbie--we really did have a great time--and it is always nice to not have to worry about they kids when we are gone---we know they are being taken care of--probably SPOILED too much!! :) Troy and I had a marvelous Valentine's Day and so did our kids----THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!!

Kara got up Sunday morning and asked me three different times if I had to go somewhere today--I finally asked her why and she said, "Because I want to go back to my Grandma Debbie's House and you leave me there!" The kids all LOVE to go to their Grandma Debbie's and Grandpa Lynn's!! They are the GREASTEST in laws and grandparents ever!!!
