Yesterday was Valentine's Day and I wanted to make it very special for my favorite boys. While everything didn't go exactly as planned, (Guy had to go to work for a couple hours and I had some other stuff that took me away for a bit) it still turned out WONDERFULLY!!
I had been planning all week to make a red dinner for Guy and Vaughn. My friend Cindy had a picture of a similar dinner she had done on her blog and I was super impressed so I decided to copy her!
I tried to make everything either red or pink. When you look at the table it is a little overwhelming! The menu consisted of: A caprese salad
ManicottiHomemade pink lemonade
A strawberry cake
After dinner the boys got to open their cards and presents. Guy's present was delayed in shipping because of all of the snow so I wrapped some Reese's hearts for him. Vaughn got a red devil that dances to the song, "Do You Love Me?". It was so fun!
We were too full to eat the cake last night so we will have to chow down tonight. Here are some more pictures of our night:

Vaughn isn't used to getting his picture taken when he prays (hence the look on his face) but I had to capture him asking us to pray before dinner! He is learning so much so fast and picking up on everything we do (good or bad).
My boys enjoying some bubbly (well, lemonade in bubbly glasses).
