Lavon and I decided to make Valentine's Day not about us this year but about the kids, showing them how much we love them. So...the day started with each kiddo getting an invitation to dinner reminding them to dress up and fix their hair :). We then started the morning off with an attempt at heart shaped pancakes. It was a little more difficult than I thought so after the first round, the hearts disappeared. Next, we packed up and went to the Discovery Center. The kids had a great time going through the exhibits and exploring. After that adventure, we headed home to prepare for our special dinner. We blocked off the kitchen with blankets and sheets and decorated the table with lots of hearts and love. The kids were so excited! We had a hard time keeping them away! I made popcorn chicken, mac and cheese, and corn for dinner (gotta be kid friendly!) and we had heart shaped brownies with ice cream and sprinkles for dessert. They loved it! They got to use Valentine champagne flutes and eat by candlelight. Here are a few pictures from our special day together!
