Happy Valentine's Day

Well this week Beverly got to see a little bit of what Valentine's Day is in the U.S. At school there were flowers sent back and forth as a fundraiser for student council ... and the younger kids exchange small cards with candy in them. Beverly got into the action with TJ and Abby and took some of their style valentine cards to her friends. And she enjoyed a little heart shaped box of candy here at home too.

Yesterday we went to TJ's basketball game ... then to dinner and to a college basketball game nearby. Beverly is sleeping late this morning, and will have a day off school tomorrow due to a holiday, President's Day, where we celebrate the birthdays of our former U.S. Presidents. Mitch is off with the kids, but I have to work ... so no holiday for me!

High school girls basketball is over now, and Beverly would like to join the girls track team when they start their practices in about a week. So it looks like she will soon be busy again with practices 5 days a week and some sporting events!
