Love Day 2010

Year's ago, before kids, Scott and I went out to dinner on Valentine's Day at a popular restaurant. 3.5 hours later, as we were just sitting down to eat, we swore we would never be so stupid again to venture out on this crazy night. We usually celebrate it with the kids at home. This year, Savannah's activity days leaders provided babysitting for a few families in the ward, ours included. So we had a nice adult dinner instead. I always thought it would be fun to have a nice fancy dinner with adults for Valentine's Day, but never tried. I was glad to have people over this year! Here is my table set up for company.
A few of the details...

We were lucky that we found some people who wanted to spend their Sweetheart Day with us! We had Alice Springs chicken, salad, breadsticks, honey-glazed carrots, and a very sinful, but to die for chocolate soup, I got from Bro. Shearer. Ok, I thought it was divine, if others thought the raspberry coulis on top was a bit tart:) Thanks for a fun evening, guys! And to those of you who missed, we'll get you yet next month!

We had our traditional Valentine's Day dinner with the kids on Sunday. Scott took charge this year and put it all together himself, complete with treat bags for everyone. Didn't he do a great job?!

Savannah looks like it's going to bite her.

I even got these beautiful flowers too. Anybody else hate red roses? For me, anyway, they are too cliche.

He made heart-shaped chicken and mushroom quesadillas. They were delish!

And for dessert, a heart-shaped brownie and ice cream cake! Thank you, Honey, for spoiling me today. I love you!
