February in review…...

For a short month,  February was busy with birthdays, sports,  holidays and snow cancellations.





February birthday people were honored at Lisbeth's house on her actual birthday.  Ella turned the big 
1-1 and Jim the big 7-0.  The theme was a mixed Olympics, hoedown theme.  With Jenni's games and Bethany Blues BBQ, we carried it off.  Jim was thrilled with his roast by David, his photo book and a fun questionnaire that the grands did a great job answering.  How well they know their Pop!






Jim on his birthday, sporting his Olympic hat, a gift from the Ashleys.  To celebrate, we went to a movie and ate at 1776 steak house….a special date for a special guy.





Valentine's Day is a special part of February.  These cookies went to a church coffee hour, to a nursing home's residents and to our local work men, repairing chimneys in Westwood.





We love attending sporting events whenever we can.  Just missing a big snow storm, we were in PA to watch Keelyn play indoor field hockey. She and the goalie hug at the end of every game.  At this tournament, the team came in second!





Keeping the feeders full and the suet supplied, keeps us busy when there is snow on the ground.  We love our cardinals!





The February full moon which appeared on Valentine's Day is called the snow moon.  Well-named as this February brought a few big snows and colder than normal temps.
