V-Day Party

Emma preschool Valentine's Day Party was today. She was so excited when she woke up and remembered it was her party! And she was even more excited that she wasn't sick this time-she missed her Christmas party because she got sick at school. I had set out a couple little vday presents for them this morning-new shirts from Grandma Mitchell, and a new stuffed animal. Which has gone with us everywhere today :) Just to add to the excitement of today! (I actually think I am going to set out the vday presents from Grandma Sautter tomorrow and then the rest on Sunday. That way it is a whole weekend of excitement!)

Here is a group shot of Emma's class:

I was in charge of craft time. So I had them make heart shaped frames with heart stickers on them. I actually didn't send them home with them because I am going to print out wallet sized prints of the group picture and put on them and then send them home on Monday. Then they made candy necklaces. Which took them a lot longer then I thought it would. But they all did a good job with it.

Then another mom was in charge of the game. She had found a really cute game that they had to pick a heart out of the basket, some had letters on it and other stickers. If they choose one with a letter they had to go to the front of the room and try to figure out how to spell "heart".
Listening to the instructions:

Spelling the word "heart"


I ended up bringing Aiden with me. He was so good, I forgot he was there! He just found a little corner, got out one toy, and played with it the whole time. I only saw him twice, when he was poopy :), and when it was snack time.

Then they were able to open their bag that was filled with Vday cards from everyone in their class.



Emma was so excited with each one that she pulled out!



She was so cute and shared with Aiden. If it was a boy one, he got it, and he was so excited.


It was so fun to be there and see Emma with all her classmates. I think it turned out really well and everyone had a good time.
