Love Day

We love Valentine's day. It is so fun for me to decorate the house the night before so that the kids can wake up to a fun surprise. I left a heart path from each of their rooms that lead down the stairs to the kitchen where it was decorated in Valentine's day fashion.




My mom always bought us a fun Valentine themed shirt, but since she still carries that tradition on for her grand kids...I decided two valentine shirts a year is a bit much and got them each a cute stuffed animal instead...

We had a fun breakfast with heart shaped ham, pink scrambled eggs, and pink milk. The big hit every year is pink crepes with yummy strawberry yogurt, powdered sugar and whip cream. My sister, Jen got me a crepe maker a couple of Christmas's ago and I LOVE it. It is one of those things that I don't use that often, but when I do use it, it makes for such a fun and YUMMY treat.... Anthony was such an amazing hubby today. He did the laundry, the dishes, picked up the house, watched the kids so I could take a nap and then later on in the day Anthony took the kids off to Nana and Papa's so that he could make a special Valentines day dinner for me (Sorry Ladies, but he is ALL MINE!!!).... Dinner was one of my all time favorites...ALASKAN KING CRAB and steak. He had a table set up by the fire with brie cheese and crackers.......It was so yummy!!!! and so nice to have a wonderful meal, in a quite home, with a crackling fire going and a hot hubby by my side. I am one lucky lady.

After dinner we went to a Valentine's day dance at the church. I had to help out in the kitchen and so, of course, Anthony helped out as well. We did go and dance for a while afterwards.

If is funny how after all these years, the most romantic Valentine's gift is just a nice quite day at home with my hubby.
