Roaming Rolfe's

Valentine's Day!

(((Still catching up! Sorry!)))

We had a fun Valentines!!!

(Pictures are out of order, sorry!)

Lizzie and I helped in Bekah's Kindergarten class party!

We had fondue for dinner! 3 courses! First cheese, then a broth for meat,and last CHOCOLATE!!! Here we are enjoying the Chocolate, I forgot to take pictures of the other 2 courses!

Pink breakfast of course! Have to start the day out right!

We had pink pancakes, strawberries, and strawberry milk!

The girls lunch, had to have a few valentines treats! Heart sandwiches, red jello, and pink strawberry oroes!

This year I found an idea on Pinterest to do a mailbox for each child/person and to put a treat in each day leading up to Valentine's Day, it was so much fun! They loved coming home from school and checking their mail boxes! I did V Day socks, straws, candies...

Here is Valentine's Days goodies, they wouldn't fit in the boxes!

This year I decided to make Dustin a 'man bouquet' like one I saw on Pinterest!

So I got a bunch of goodies he likes, and attached them to wooden skewers with tape! (Next time I would use a stronger tape like box tape, and fill the vase with rocks or sand for weight so it wouldn't tip over)

We had a great Valentine's! So thankful for my sweethearts!

February!!! (Still catching up!)

(((Still working on catching up! Be sure to scroll down through January.)))

Jacob advanced 2 ranks in Scouts! And got several merit badges!

We are very proud of him!

So, while Dustin was deployed he was promoted to Master Sergeant, and once he was home and got back to work after leave he was transfer to another unit to be the First Sergeant!

They had a big Change of Responsibility where he took his place! It was very neat.

As the new 1SGT we had to provide the refreshments, since it was on a Friday, and everyone was getting off right after he decided we should just have treats and drinks, so I made 107 cupcakes, 75 chocolate chip cookies, and 75 sugar cookies! (Yeah it took 2 days of baking! But everything turned out yummy!)

As my helper we agree! LOL She really enjoyed the chocolate cupcakes!

I am so proud of him and how hard he has worked to get here! He will make a great 1SGT!

Grace's 10th Birthday! (Still January!)

(((Be sure to scroll down to see more January as I am posting a bunch today!)))

Grace decided to have a spa party for her last big party!

(We do big birthday parties through there 10th, than we continue to do our birthday dinners/family party, and they get to pick something fun to do with a friend!)

We did homemade face masks!

Then the girls made homemade sugar scrub to use after they soaked their feet in the homemade foot soak I had already made!

Then they had to paint their toes of course!

Oh and we had lots of yummy treats, fruit, veggies, and of course cup cakes!

Grace had a great time and really enjoyed the party!

This is one I see us doing again for the other girls!

More January!

(((Still catching up, be sure to scroll to previous posts!)))

We spend more time exploring!

We went to the Florissant Fossil beds just over an hour away.

Checking out the visitor center

Hiking the paths through the petrified trees!

They were HUGE!

After we explored that we decided to stop at the Dinosaur Museum on our way home.

They have a neat little kids area to play and explore!

I have a picture, somewhere, of Jake when he was about 4 by a sharks mouth just like this one when we went to Sea World in CA one time! So he wanted another one!
