Valentines Day

We had a great Valentines Day yesterday. The kids love holidays and this one was no exception. In the afternoon, we went to the store and got stuff to make a fun dinner full of red things the kids like. We had a heart-shaped pizza from Papa Murphy's along with red jello shaped like hearts and lips, chocolate dipped strawberries, and valentine cupcakes. We also made ice cubes out of red Crystal Light for our drinks. Davis and Blair made Valentines for Dad too. Blair spent a good two hours working on hers and used tons of glitter. She was very proud and Dad loved them.

For some reason, the kids had decided to surprise Dad when he came home. They hid behind the chairs in the living room and jumped out and shouted "Happy Valentines Day!" when Spence walked through the door. After our fun little dinner, we gave them their Valentines and they were thrilled. It was so fun to have our family "Valentines Party" as Davis and Blair called it. Spence and I avoid going out on Valentines Day because of all the people, so we're going on a date Friday. I sure love my family and love doing fun things with them.

This made me miss the days of Spence and all the kids being little and all the fun stuff we did. You just got to love them and enjoy them so much because the time flies by so fast! It looks like you had so much fun!
