Pjs, Pizza Hut and Princess Bride.

This year we decided to celebrate Valentine's Day a little differently.  We set up a formal dinner for just the kiddos (well as formal as you can be with paper plates, plastic ware and our "kids' menu").  Hotdogs, french fries, fruit cocktail, fruit punch and chocolate pudding--don't worry, this is not a typical menu ;0)  Bry and I were the servers and referred to Brie and Alex as Miss and Mr. Graden.  Brie spoke in her "grown up" voice, used her napkin and tried to be polite...Alex on the other hand dug right in and was covered with pudding by the end of the meal!  We cleared their plates, brought them requested items, wiped up spilled juice here and spilled pudding there, and danced in the kitchen while they ate.


After dinner we piled in the van and headed over to Ted Drewe's for Strawberry Oreo concretes.  YUM!  Thanks Mom & Dad for treating us, long distance :0)

When we got home we got the kids ready for bed, our $10 Pizza Hut meal was delivered, we hooked up my computer monitor to Bry's laptop in our room, changed into PJs, put our sparkling cider on ice and watched "Princess Bride" in bed.  It was so laid back and relaxing...the perfect way to celebrate Valentine's Day 9 months pregnant.  

I sure enjoyed celebrating the day with my little family.  I love them buckets and buckets and buckets.
