Love Month Happenings

I'm playing catch up for the last half of love month. Here are a few pictures of our families activities.

Our traditional Valentine's Day Heart Shaped Pizza dinner

Trevor and his BIG Valentines Card (his card was big, but the card he gave me had a Maurices gift card in it:)
I got a $30 gift certificate from Benihans for my birthday, so Trevor and I decided to take the whole family for a birthday dinner (the kids meals cost less than a babysitter).

We told the boys we were going to dinner where there were food Ninjas cooking right in front of us. All the children did fantastic. They loved the food show. Amelia would squeal every time the chef put food on her plate and called her princess.


Amelia and the boys used their kid chop sticks the whole time. Amelia screamed when they brought her a Shirley Temple with a little pink umbrella by the straw.

After my birthday celebrations in Vancouver the kids and I went up to Olympia for the rest of the weekend to hear Grandma and Grandpa's talks on Sunday (they did a fantastic job:). Grandma made me an angel food cake.

Trevor's work got us box seats for the Globtrotters. We took the boys and went for my birthday.

The boys got to choose one item at Target when I came across a 90% off Valentine aisle. They both chose stuffed animals. I paid fifty cents for them. I got an entire set of heart shaped plates, bowls and cups for nineteen cents each. I've never hit an after holiday sale that good before. I stocked up on decorations and Valentines for next year. The goggles were new for swimming lessons so they were playing pilots with the goggles.

The last day of Love Month I wrote memories on the back of pictures and hung them from balloons. Trevor loved it. So did the kids.
