Trevin's Valentines

Well, I think this is the last year we will need to make Valentine's.  I totally stole this idea from Summer Driggs blog, I thought it was too cute and Trevin liked it, so we went with it.  Super easy and they are all done except Tootsie Pops only come 19 in a bag?  Where did they come up with such a strange number?  Now we have to go buy another bag to get the last 4 invitations.  I was hoping Trevin had some suckers left over from Halloween, but no such luck.

Happy Valentine's Day part II

We went to church this morning. Travis stayed home sick but was feeling better later in the afternoon. I am glad he got better because I had a big Valentine's Day dinner planned.

When I was little, sometimes on Valentines Day my mom would make a fancy dinner, serve it on the best plates, make us dress up, and use our manners.

I didn't make anyone dress up, and Travis set the table and I was too busy getting everything finished to notice he was just using the regular plates until he was done and didn't have the heart to make him put it away and start over.

We had chicken parmesan with angel hair pasta, zucchini, spinach salad with strawberries mandarin oranges and feta cheese, Magleby's rolls, and fruit punch. I made 7-up cake with pink frosting and valentine's m&ms on top for dessert. It was yummy and everyone loved it and gave me lots of compliments. I have the best boys around I think!

Happy Valentines Day - part I

It started out like any other Saturday. We got up, went to Trevin's basketball game which they won, and then came home to do chores. I went grocery shopping in the afternoon and then got ready to go out.

We gave the boys their Valentine's gift. They each got a bag of Valentine's Mike and Ikes and I got them a couple of DVDs to watch while Sean and I were gone.

We went to dinner. Sean had Ribeye Steak and Shrimp and I had a New York Strip Steak and Shrimp. It was yummy!

Thanks honey for taking me out, it was fun to sit and visit with you for a couple hours.

We ran by Sean's parents house to see if he could get their new internet router to work and then came home and watched the 2nd movie with the boys. It was a fun night!

My Husband, the dork

I know I've mentioned this before, but it seems like Sean is the hardest one of my boys to get to cooperate for family pictures. We did a photo shoot with my family at Thanksgiving in Leamington, and we only ended up with one good picture of the two of us together and he had on that bright yellow Steelers jacket, so B&W photo's work right?!

I just wanted to wish my sweetheart a Happy Valentine's day even though he is a dork and even though he got me a frying pan for Valentine's Day! I love you Sean!
