Cupid, made his annual visit, and left cookies and hearts all over the bedrooms. For some reason, I didn't manage to take a single picture of those festivities, or of the class parties at the kids schools. Just another example of how crazy things are right now. (After all, water polo season has started.)
Our actual Valentine's Day was a little hectic, so we had to put off our family dinner for a couple of days, but we still celebrated eventually.
We had a nice candle lit dinner and everyone received a new book. (Because what better way to celebrate Valentine's than to encourage the love of reading?)
Fortunately, this is one of the best received gifts for everyone at our house. I love that my kids love to read!
Samantha cooked up some lovely pink heart pancakes for our fancy meal.
And we had a some genuine love potion to drink with it.
And because Shawn is good that way, he also gave each of the girls roses to make sure that they would be his Valentines forever. (Don't know how we will handle it when someone else wants that spot.)
And to top it off, our cute neighbors, the Robinsons, heart attacked our door. We loved it. All in all a good Valentine's Day for everyone.
