love day 2013

Valentines Day was SOOOO fun this year. the kids both were GREAT which always makes for a good day! plus, dad got off work early so we could go to dinner and that is always a plus!

Lindsie helped ej with this... i think she is trying to tell us something.....

 nate sent me flowers at work on the 13th

as i was exercising the morning of the 14th i saw our hawk {that always hangs out on the light post and eats our mice- THANK YOU} with a friend. he is usually always alone.... must have been on date with his lover!

ej and rowen had heart pancakes....

 nate and i had pink smoothies...

and we started in on the chocolate before we got out of our jammies... as pictured below.... 

We headed out for our dinner date with date....

double dates :)

 nate and i got a few small gifts for the kidlets...

 .....ans rowen's kept him entertained for *most* of dinner....

 paused for some popcorn...

 those eyes, those lips, and that HAIR- LOVE!
