Valentines Recap

We had a wonderful Valentines day in our family. When I got home from exercising in the morning Matt surprised me by setting out a beautiful rose, some chocolates, and a thoughtful card. I quickly ran out to my car to get the gift I picked up for him so that he could have a peek before he headed to the gym. 

Haley and I had fun making pink, heart-shaped pancakes for breakfast. We used my Aunt Lees recipe. It's the best.



Haley's hearts turned out much better than mine! We love that she is living with us for a few months before her mission.




During our morning scriptures Blake decided he needed a Book of Mormon to read as well and carried one around in his little 'car.' We thought it was funny.




Blake also loves having aunt Haley a around! She was his valentine this year.

After Blake's morning nap, Blake and I went up to Lehi to go to the Dinosaur Museum with Ethan and Robyn. Blake really loves his cousin. Robyn then made us some lunch (she is a sandwich genius) and the boys played some more at their house. 

Matt continued to surprise me by bringing home a new shirt for me that he picked up on his lunch break! He really is so thoughtful. 

That evening we left Blake with his aunts and went on a quadruple date with my parents, grandparents, and sister & her husband to the country club where we enjoyed a delicious sea food and prime rib buffet with a chocolate bar for dessert. It was so nice to be able to enjoy the night without worrying about cutting up Blake's food & helping him eat. It was very relaxing.


My handsome valentine.


The sun was setting and it got too dark for a good picture of Robyn & Chris so they get black and white. 


As you can see our boys didn't miss us too much! 

I love valentines because it's an excuse to eat way too much chololate and celebrate the ones you love. I'm seriously a lucky girl to have so much love and happiness in my life.
