Our Valentine's Day Dinner....Mmmm

For 3 years now we have celebrated Valentine's Day together as a family. We make a delicious meal that we wouldn't normally make or order out and enjoy it at home. We go all out and the kids really look forward to our time together. We prepare the day before and they get to help decorate and we usually use candy on the table so before dinner starts there are a few decorations missing. It has been our family tradition that we will continue. We wouldn't miss the baked potato being thrown across the table from Danielle, Emma trying to put an extra scoop of sour cream and missing the plate, landing on her clothes, or Lauren who can't get enough pepper on her potatoes. All these memories of tonight will be with us for years to come. Hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day.
This is Danielle and daddy after Danielle enjoyed her chocolate cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries, chocolate ice cream cupcakes...etc. :) She really loved them.
This is what the grown-ups dessert looked like. Chocolate covered strawberries and ice cream cupcakes from Cold Stone. Those were delicious.

Hunter and Lauren enjoying daddy's delicious steaks with baked potatoes, no need for a salad, that would have ruined the meal. If you look in the bottom left corner that was shrimp with daddy's homemade cocktail sauce, that was awesome!
