A Sweet Valentine’s Day

D and I celebrated Valentine’s Day early this year by going out to dinner at the newly opened Kickin’ Crab in Diamond Jamboree.  We enjoyed our two pounds of shrimp, but I personally liked Boilin’ Crab a little better. 

When I had the kids get dressed this morning I didn’t realize they were twins!

I remember l used to love Valentine’s Day in elementary school.  k’s teacher bought bakery boxes for the kids to take all 30(!) of their valentines home in.

I had fun looking at all of the valentine cards/treats.  Some parents were quite creative.

That’s k’s valentine on the top.  It has a chocolate milk straw with a printable from here.  My sister gave the kids flavored milk straws for Christmas and they were quite the hit, so I thought this idea was perfect. 

For dinner at home I made chicken parmesan with spaghetti.  For dessert we had a berry chocolate cheesecake.

Although I have never been a fan of long-stemmed roses and teddy bears, I do like celebrating this day dedicated to love.
