Love Bandits

Friday night before Valentine's we took the kids out to "Heart Attack" their cousin Jasen. My mom used to do this with my sister Jill and I. We would stay up all night pasting hearts onto Popsicle sticks and then go stick them into some lucky person's lawn. I thought it would be fun to do this with the kids this year.
They really got into with their disguises and thought it was pretty funny when a cop car kept driving by while were doing it. They were pros at this. Super quiet and we didn't get caught.

The only problem was that they can't keep a secret. As soon as Jasen came over for a visit they spilled the beans. Oh Well!
I think we will try and make this a new Family Tradition. We had a blast!

Looks like fun! Cute pictures!

Also, Beth - To answer your question from my blog - we don't know how it is surviving so long.

We put the tree up just after Thanksgiving, just a regular tree in a regular tree stand with water (though we started feeding it plant food when it began growing new needles). But one day it started growing new needles and pine cones, and then it kept growing new stuff and surviving. We got it at that Christmas tree lot in Macey's parking lot.

Just having fun seeing how long our little tree will survive.

I love it, it reminds me of mom.
The best part is to see them in snow:)
