Valentine's Day...I love you!

I love Valentine's Day! This year, we made robot Valentines to give away. Here's how they turned out. I thought they were kind of fun and the kids had fun helping.
Here's my Valentine...what a goof ball! The kids made a craft at preschool with googly eyes, and we still had some out. Dave put them in and the kids were dying laughing. We had to take a picture! I love this man so much!! XOXO He is an amazing husband and daddy-O!
And my cute little sweeties! The kids went to Preschool in the morning, and had a great time! They did a pajama breakfast party. They came home and were so excited to show me all of their Valentine’s, tell me about the games and activities they did and most especially, eat some candy! Here they are sharing a kiss...it was a cute, innocent kiss, but looks pretty juicy in this pic!
One of the best parts about Valentine's Day? The chocolate! Cal couldn't agree more! (Dave did bring me a box of chocolates...mmm!)
This year to celebrate as a family, we had a “Lucky in Love” Chinese themed party.
We went to dinner at Zhang’s Chopstix, a new Chinese place by Weber. The food was pretty good.
The coolest part, though, about dinner was the fish! Tell me, what is this thing?
Then we went home and dipped fortune cookies in red candy melt chocolate and decorated them with sprinkles. Yum! The kids enjoyed that!
We came up with fortunes for each other, that was fun! Finally, we played a game with conversation hearts and chopsticks where you see how many hearts you can get from one bowl into the other using only chopsticks. Emma got pretty good! Cal understood the concept but decided it would be easier to pick up the bowl with the hearts and dump them into the other bowl! It was pretty cute. Dave was the champion of that game! We laughed a lot. What a fun, cute holiday! We love it!
