Love day 2012

So this is the 3rd V-day celebrating with the Embrees-I was so excited when I knew I would be here! The Embrees don't give gifts to each other at Christmas, instead using V-day to do that. I love the concept of showing your love for one-another, and celebrating God's love for us this day. The big family gift this year was Willow.















The kids had voice/piano lessons, so we took Willow to Elle's friends house, and went on a walk together. It was gorgeous and beautiful outside!

We then took the kids to P.E. and took advantage of the few hours we had to ourselves to go out for lunch (Thai food!) and talk. It was so wonderful to share with each other what is on our hearts. We also did a bit of thrifting before getting the kids and heading back home to open presents. 

Look who we found in the drivers seat! :)
We got home and the kiddos were excited to open their presents-the fun began!
                                                 





 I had found a new canon lens at a thrift store, and so that was their gift to me--along with the amazing opportunity to come up here for a month and be with them-I'm so blessed!

Hope you had an enjoyable LOVE day celebrating one-another and the love of our Amazing God!
