Valentine's Day

 Obviously, everyday, we should show our love to our family and others, but I find it very nice to to have a holiday like Valentine's  Day to really concentrate showing love to my family and doing some extra fun simple things together with them.  I think it is a good reminder to really show our appreciation and love for others.  Here are some picture of Valentine's Day!

During Emily and Anna's nap time, Megan helped me with the dishes.  She LOVES washing dishes!

Then after the dishes were done, we started up making pizza dough together!

Since it was Valentine's Day, we made heart shaped pizzas.  We made few tiny ones so the girls could each decorate their own pizzas.

Their little pizzas they made.  The two with black olives are supposed to be smiley faces:)

And of course, after they had made their pizzas, they got to enjoy eating some cheese!

Tim and Anna...what a picture! Tim had just woken up from sleeping to watch the girls make their pizzas and was still a little tired.  And poor Anna, she had a little ponytail the day before, and her hair was just sticking straight up all day.  Her mother should have taken the time to at least wet it down...Still a cute picture of both of them!

I love this little Valentine...she is so sweet!!  Her hair is just too funny!

After the kids went to bed, we had a little date together with...

...some cherry cheese cake and Code Red Mountain Dew.  I bought Code Red Mountain Dew to go with the pizza for Tim as he loves it (and I enjoy it too)!  The girls had strawberry milk to go with their pizza!

We did the normal making Valentine's cards as well.  We also got to skype with G & G Armstrong after our evening meal which was fun for all of us.  The girls got Valentine's treats from both sets of grandparents!  I love my family so much and am thankful for this fun little holiday to remind us to show our love to our family and others as well as do some extra fun things!
