This Valentine's Day the stars kind of aligned for us and allowed Mommy & Daddy to have a memorable day. Maybe it was the fact that it was the THIRTEENTH time we have celebrated the holiday together.
We started off with a fun breakfast of heart shaped cinnamon rolls and fruit & yogurt parfaits. Daddy waited to go into work so he could have breakfast with us!
And he had fun Valentine's gifts for the girls. This has started to become his sweet little tradition.
Daddy came home from work a little early after picking up some goodies at Pike's Place Market.
Then we had a few fun visitors. Sarah, Cohen & Jaiden stopped by with a tasty heart shaped cookie, Courtney and lil' Landon brought the girls super yummy cupcakes and Cindy and Davis swung by.
Davis and Cindy had been out of town for the past few weeks and it had been almost a month since we'd gotten together. The kids were excited to see each other and exchange Valentine's. Davis spoiled the girls with LOTS of candy and some really cool balloons. Janie's eyes lit up big when they brought them inside - she just LOVES balloons!
Then we exchanged a few Valentine's for Mommy & Daddy and fed the girls dinner.
The girls have been busy make such nice cards, and even doing a little shopping at Nordstrom! Already they have such great taste!
We made Clara her own special Shirley Temple drink and she toasted with Daddy!
After our sweeties were tucked in, we stuck with our special traditions and cooked a yummy seafood dinner together complete with the special bread and meringues from Le Painer at Pike's Place.
We enjoyed champagne, special music, delicious food and chocolate, which all came together thanks to tired children, and created a pretty darn romantic evening in our own dining room!
I love you, Kevin Anthony and I love how we've managed to make and maintain our own sweet traditions over the past 13 Valentine's Days! XOXO, Erin Elaine
