So Valentines Day is gone and over with but it was a good one. Jared and I got to spend it as well as our anniversary on Thursday and this past weekend so on Monday it was all about the kids. We had gotten them bikes. Madison has never really wanted one but we thought it was about time for her to have one. Jaxon has always wanted one but he is kind of too small still but we figured that we could not just buy one. That would not go over so well with either one of the children. So when the kids came down stairs we had them close their eyes and Jared went out and got them. They were so excited since it was considered a surprise!! They looked so adorable on them. Maddy jumped on and just went around in circles. Jaxon is still a tad bit too short so he was happy to sit on it and have one of us push him. It was such a special way to spend the day. Then that night Gram was nice enough to come over and watch Jaxon while the rest of us drove down to Jacksonville IL to watch my brother in law Spencer play basketball. It is only about a hour and half drive so not bad at all. I haven't been able to watch him play like the other family members so it was super cool to see. Madison came with us because she was practically raised watching her uncle play. She is so good at the games and loves to yell out Spencer's name! It was also nice because Spencer's girlfriend Rachel was there so we got to chat. She is such a blast to be around and always nice to get to hang out with her. She is really good with the kids so Madison liked playing with her. Jaxon isn't able to go to the games because unlike Madison he cannot sit still. He likes to scream and do what he knows he is not suppose too. He would rather run around the stands and lets just say I would rather him not! Plus it gave Gram some time to play with him and get him comfortable with her. So I would say that this was a successful Valentines Day!!!
