Happy Valentine's day!



We had a great Valentine's Day. Trent and the kids went out Saturday afternoon and brought me back some flowers and a gift certificate for a pedicure. I felt so spoiled. Thank you! Then Trent and I celebrated early and went out to dinner to California Pizza Kitchen Saturday night. We are avoiding sugar and not eating desserts this year except for 1 day out of each month. Valentine's Day was our dessert day for February. The kids were pretty excited. We had cinnamon rolls for breakfast. I made the overnight cinnamon rolls recipe on the Our Best Bites blog and overcooked them. They still tasted good but could have been so much better. We went to church early that morning. I teach Tucker's class at church and it was fun to give the kids in my class a Valentine treat! Sunday evening we had friends over for dinner and we had BBQ steak, salmon, and asparagus with garlic bread and fruit salad. For dessert we had chocolate fondue with bananas (my favorite), donut holes, strawberries, and blonde brownies. We had a wonderful time with our friends and the kids had a lot of fun. We even got Band Hero and Lego Rock Band out and it was very entertaining. Talia and Tucker loved receiving their Valentine's cards with $$$$$ from both sets of grandparents. Tucker has already spent his money as usual. Happy Belated Valentine's Day!
