In February, my parents came to visit. We love when Nana and Granddaddy come to visit. There's always a lot of fun game playing!

I don't know how the kids stayed out in the frigid weather. I was SO cold. I sat in the car.
I'm still a CA girl when it gets cold.

We watched a Christmas movie every month of 2022. February's movie was The Muppet Christmas Carol.
my word of 2022 spotted on my trip to New Orleans for a girls trip with my besties from college.

my dear friend from our local grocery store passed away. This man shined the love of Jesus to me every time I went to King Soopers. He was the guy who put the carts away, a humble and kind soul. His smile was always present and his heart was always ready to listen and offer wisdom and peace.
Game time with Nana and Granddaddy
Clue is Kayla's favorite
Foosball fun!
This was a freezing cold walk. We literally got to the park (about 1/4 mile from home) and decided to just head right back home. We did stop for this quick picture before we turned right around to get back to the warm house.
Ticket to Ride and hot chocolate

My dad's birthday is in February so we decided to celebrate with him. We didn't have the right number of candles nor the right numbers on the candles, so we decided to have some fun with it. :)
Happy birthday, Dad!
Birthday boy!
Trying to figure out just how old he is.
Happy 530th birthday, Dad. You don't look a day over 73.
Elise wanted one with all of us, so here it is. That's her hand, of course.

Giving blessings and saying good-byes.
I love how close my kiddos are to my parents.
Thank you, Mom and Dad, for making such an effort to be a part of their lives, not just for the fun, but also for the hard parts too. You have been here through thick and thin, and they see Jesus in you. We are all so grateful for your presence in our lives, most especially now.

These two girlies attended our school's Father/daughter dance with Chris.
Aren't they just lovely?

We played some Quirkle and laughed a lot and had ice cream sundaes (that is a cherry covered in chocolate that Kolbe is holding).
February had a whole lot of fun!
