Happy Valentines Day!

I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day! We spent the morning working on Carson's science project (exploding Mentos in soda to see which soda explodes the highest). The kids all really enjoyed the experiment. (Diet Coke works the best!) If any of you want to borrow our "geyser tube" to try the experiment yourselves, let me know (for those that live too far away, you can get one on Ebay). Make sure to use mint flavored Mentos too. Here's the Diet Coke picture. After the science project, Chuck and I went to the Cheesecake Factory for a Valentine's lunch date. We tried the Fresh Banana Cream Cheesecake for the first time, and it was really good. Anyway, here are some pictures of the kids with their Valentine's baskets.
Cheyanna finally got her own Webkinz, and she LOVES her little kitty cat. She named her "Pretty". :)

Gotta love a holiday that's all about love! What a great chance to make sure your loved ones know how much you love them. :)
