I've never been one to really get into Valentine's Day and all the festivities, not that I'm against it or anything. But now that we have kids I thought it would be fun to celebrate the "day o'love". So this morning when everyone was awake, we gave Kate and Luke a little valentine gift from Mommy & Daddy and then went out to breakfast with friends.
Luke opened a collection of Cars books and Kate got a few Strawberry Shortcake themed items.
After breakfast, Daddy headed off to work and the kids and I met my mom and Brooklyn over at my Nana & Bapa's for a little visit before swim lessons. All 3 kids had a great time playing at the park across the street and spending time with Bapa. Grammie & Pop Pop (John's parents) met us to watch swim lessons, then came over with yet more "love treats" for everyone.
When we were up from quiet/nap time, we got to baking and made some yummy heart shaped sugar cookies for an after dinner treat. Since John worked a day shift, he was able to be home for dinner and, at the last minute, we spent the evening at the Vander Molen's house. =)
Showing off the end result.
I've trained him well.
Happy Valentine's Day everyone! ♥

What a fun day!! And such pretty cookies for being made by chillins...I'm guessing they had some help? Can't believe Luke's curls. So sweet.
BTW, is that a new dining table in the background that I see? Now I must request house pics. :)
Next year we're coming to your house to make cookies!
