Valentine's Day 2016

Valentine's Day is my favorite holiday....always has been and always will be. 

One of the best things about Valentine's Day is the elementary class parties. Woot! So fun to party all day long with my kids. Oh the glitter and hearts and sugary sweets. 

In Sis's class this little boy handed me this Valentine. My heart just burst! How sweet of him to make me a card. 

The class parties were on Friday which was Feb. 12th. That meant two fun days of celebrating.

But, I was coming down with a bad cold and by Sunday I was feeling miserable. MISERABLE! I did not want to be sick on my favorite day! But, I was sick. Ugh!

I laid down most of the day and then pulled myself up to set the table and make dinner. Well, the table wasn't as festive as year's past but it would have to do. 

For dinner we had marinated flank steak, caesar salad and garlic toast. See's Candy for dessert. 

Dinner was good. Pj's were the attire for our special tradition....in red of course.

We usually get a family photo but I was just feeling so phooey. This is how I spent most of the weekend. 

Cam had the kids make me special Valentine cards. Very sweet!

I did line the kids up and get their photo. Not the best but it's what I could get. 

I love my little Valentines.
