Valentine's Day!

My pink princess milk drinkin' Valentine...

Here are Allikaye's
Valentine's that she passed out to her class...
we made the melted crayon hearts.
There may have been bribery in
the form of tootsie rolls to get her to
sign her name on every one.

Here is the Valentine box...

Sweet handwriting...

Cookie Pops...

we made these for Allikaye's class...

Such a fun lovey dovey holiday!
I caught Miss AK in mid-laugh...
and I love her little scrunched up nose!!

Daddy got us flowers...candy...
and a mini pillow pet unicorn for Miss Valentine herself!

Happy Day!
So thankful for a day to tell those you love...
that you love them!!

xoxo

Daddy Daughter Ball

Allikaye had her first case of
Strep Throat...
and it was blizzardy outside...
but nothing could hold this princess back
from getting all dolled up
to go out and dance the night away with her
daddy...I mean...prince.

I had to catch a few pictures of her talking
to herself in the mirror...
she loves having her hair curled and pretty...
all girl, this one!

Sweet smile...even sick...

Precious watching her watch daddy getting ready...
she picked out the Venice gondola tie for Matt to wear...
it was a very serious decision.

"Mommy, this time I get to go on a date with daddy.
You can go next time"

Nothing like a daddy and daughter love.

Eeeeee! She was so excited!

I had to put these next 2 pictures in...
they show Miss Allikaye exactly how we see her...
CHATTY!

She was telling Matt all the different ways they were
going to dance...
"...and then you will swing me up in the air...
and then I will spin around you..."

"Doesn't that sound FUN, dad?"

Pretty! PRETTY!!!
I love her long hair!

Then they were off!
Despite being sick,
Matt said she was her crazy dancing self!

They came home showing me how to do
the YMCA...
and even singing some Justin Beiber songs...
baby, baby, baby, oh!

Such a wonderful and memorable
and important night in Allikaye's life!

Thanks, Matt,
for being such a great daddy...I mean...prince!
