Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is one of my favorite little holidays. In the middle of a long, cold, winter it seems so bright and cheerful with it's pinks, reds, hearts and flowers. It even makes the snow seem more beautiful...

This year we had a little Valentine's dinner with Grammy and Grampy. It was a lovely and fun filled afternoon - exactly how Valentine's Day should be. The kids were happy to be spoiled by their grandparents, and we were all happy to have an excuse to have three or four desserts...it's Valentine's Day after all!



And it wouldn't have been Valentine's Day without adorable shirts for the adorable kids.
Without a doubt, the best part of this Valentine's Day was when Ahren secretly handed Zachary my Valentine, and told him to go give it to me. Zachy came running into the kitchen, box in hand, shouting, "Hey Mom! This is for you! It's a clementine!" The only Valentines I need are right here in this house with me every day. How lucky I am to have such an amazing and loving husband, and two beautiful children. To me, everyday is Valentine's Day.
