Valentine's Fun!

What a GREAT day we had.  I love all holidays, including this one.  It's kinda fun with 5 girls too, cause they are totally into it - one of these years I'm sure we're going to go completely overboard with it all, and honestly, I can't wait!!!

Richard is a true romancer which is fabulous, he always has the best way to make me feel like I'm the most important person in his life, not just on Valentine's day, but everyday.   I love him for that.

Richard was cooking me dinner (we'll get to that later) so I decided to serve my little sweethearts pink heart shaped pancakes for dinner.  They were to say the least EXCITED to see what was on their plates. I got a lot of "you're the best mom in the whole world" so I'm taking that to mean they really liked it.












For Family Home Evening we hit up 4 different homes and gave those inside a heart attack.  Don't worry, we didn't scare them through windows or anything creepy like that - we save that for people we DON'T like!  We knocked on the door, pushed our way in and taped hearts that we had decorated the week before all over the inside of their door (sadly we forgot our camera).  It was so much fun.  

Thanks to Gramma & Grampa Martin, Bob & Helen Gibb, Fred & Freda Lowe and Brenda & Alan Wright for being willing heart attack victims.  

The girls had such a fun time!   The girls chose who they wanted to attack so thanks to all our victims for making our girls feel special!  

They love all of you!



For our romantic part of Valentine's day, my wonderful husband cooked me dinner.  He went to great lengths to find the perfect potato.....




  He braved the winds and fired up the BBQ to cook steak and found a delicious goat cheese potato recipe to serve with the steak.
Yeah, now you're jealous!


Sorry for the blurry picture, Shannon took it from stood up on a chair!  Bless her xx


 It was delicious, that's all I can say.   
The whole day was fabulous.  


HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO MY WONDERFUL FAMILY!
