Valentine's

This year we decided to do things a little different for Valentine's Day. I had asked the girls a week ago what they wanted for a special Valentine's dinner, and of course they all chose something different. I was all prepared to make three different meals until a few days later when they changed their minds with a unanimous decision. The decision didn't surprise me at all. Hot dogs! What is it with a hot dog? What kind of a special dinner is that? Oh well, It was their decision. I wanted to make the day fun for them. We pulled out the candles and fancy dishes. Their date(dad) picked each one of them up for a fun candle light dinner. Makell thought it was the neatest thing. She would just look at things on the table and start giggling. She loved the heart shaped jello. I surprised them with some of their favorite desserts, chocolate covered strawberries and Belgium cream puffs. As we talked over dinner we have decided that we need to do this type of thing more often. I hope this Valentine's Day they all felt super special and that we can remember this for a long time!

Analice, you told me about this but for some reason, I still teared up when I saw all the sweet pictures. It is so great that these girls see what they deserve from any guy at such a young age. You and Adam are such fabulous parents. Really. I love the special touch of Adam picking each girl up for their date. Makell's little smirk is too cute. She looks embarrassed!!! Such a sweet way to celebrate Valentine's Day.

PS. I think HOT DOGS are the PERFECT meal. LOL

You guys are such wonderful parents! Your kids are so blessed to have both of you in their lives. I love that Adam escorted each of them to their place & the table. What a fun memory!
