I heart you day

This is a really rough time of year for Travis. He just had Christmas, then he has my birthday, then Valentine's day, then a couple weeks later is our anniversary. There is no let up of showing your wife how much you love her. So we have sort of decided to shift our focus on our little girls on Valentine's day. 

I stole this idea from Brandi. She and her husband Jim do a restaurant in their home for their kids every Valentine's day. She makes a menu with different options and everything. I decided that this would be fun, so I straight up stole your idea Brandi! Thanks because it was a really fun thing to do and a tradition we will be starting.

This was what was on our menu:

Appetizer:

1. Nachos

2. Mandrine oranges

3. Chicken wings

Entree:

1. Fish

2. Steak

3. Heart shaped hot dogs

Side:

1. Mac and Cheese

2. Rice

3. Quinoa (we call it fung fung)

Veggie:

1. Broccoli

2. Green beans

3. Side salad

Dessert:

1. Chocolate covered scone

2. Donut

3. Cookie

Avery chose mandrine oranges, fish, mac n cheese, broccoli and the chocolate covered scone. I was surprised, I totally thought she would go for the steak!

Brooklyn chose mandrine oranges, fish, rice, green beans and the donut.

Travis was their waiter and I was the cook. They thought it was the funniest thing! 

We had candles, decorations, flowers and even background music. (they didn't even leave us a tip, cheapskates!)

When we brought them their "bill" it was a note leading them on a treasure hunt, treasure meaning a butt load of Valentine's day candy! 

It was really fun and hopefully our girls know how much we love them.

Spoiled little stinks!

They are pretty special!

Oh and this might be a little graphic so here is your warning

This is what Trav and I did after they went to bed

Oh yeah, bam chicka bam bam

(we are so lame)

Oh and you are probably wondering why he is wearing a head lamp. Our light on our patio is pretty weak, so he needed extra light to grill. This is important.
