I have a goal to be more festive. Holidays/seasons/community events-everything. I think it just makes things more fun. And adds variety. Things could include food, clothes, decor, activities, etc. I think it also provides good discussions with Cade (obviously not with ones like today but bigger ones like 4th of July, Easter, Christmas...) I don't want it to take over or make things overwhelming, just fun. And there is always a new one to look forward to and plan for. I had this realization after Valentines Day. I watched it come and go and did hardly anything for it. I thought how sad I wasn't making Valentines with Cade and teaching him about love and really getting into the spirit of things. So I am going to do better. Here is documentation:
All dressed in
green
( I know. Gorgeous Kansas scenery right? )
A picnic with green pancakes for dinner. BYU was playing right when we were eating. Hence Cole's oh so focused face. So we had to make it a family event.
Ok that was it. Small holiday so small festivities. Simple but jazzed up the day a bit. And Cade was so excited about the pancakes and that just makes everything worth it.

my mom would make a big deal out of the holidays when I was growing up, so as a result my favorite holiday was St. Pattys. She would have green glitter trailing from our rooms to a pot of gold that a leprechaun left us and then we would have green eggs and ham for breakfast. Totally awesome.
