more February and Valentine's Day

What a fun week it has been. We don't usually make a big deal out of Valentine's Day...just little happies for the kids and dinner out for us.  This year was different.  We decided to have a family Valentine's Day dinner.  My mom spent the day with me and Xander, so we went to lunch and played around all day.  My parents, my sisters, and my brother-in-law all came over for dinner at our house.  Here's a snap of Xander at lunch with me and my mom.
Dinner was lots of fun...we had pink and white balloons, plates with hearts on them, and pink and white flowers.  It was a very pink holiday.  The food was not my best.  I made sliders, but skipped a few ingredients in the interest of time and it didn't work out that great.  Oh, well.  The company was wonderful.  Here are a few pictures from Valentine's Day.

I can't believe that I didn't get any pictures once everyone got there...too busy hanging out, so I forgot to take pictures!  Other fun stuff from this week has been going to Madi's 3rd birthday party and going to the zoo.  Both fun times with our friends the Sanders. :)  Xander had a great time at the zoo.  The weather could not have been better.  Madi's paint party was a big hit too.

look, Mommy! look, Mommy! look, Mommy!
(he probably said that 100 times that day, what a cutie!)
