Valentines day 2013

Okay....so you all are going to begin thinking that my husband and I have completely lost our minds when you hear how we spent Valentines Day this year :-)

We decided on a Family Date Night!!!!! Yes, can you believe that happened? We were talking a few weeks ago about whether or not to search for a babysitter on Valentines so that we could have some time just the two of us and Robert said "ya know, we love being all together and I really don't mind just planning something for all four of us and avoid the hassle of trying to find someone to babysit that evening". Of course I was skeptical at first since we always have gone out on Valentines just the two of us. Well, we found out that Old Country Buffet was actually hosting a "Family Date Night" on the 14th and so we decided to go ahead and give it try. I must admit that it was soooooo much fun! The line was very long to get in but once we sat down to eat, all was well. The kids had balloons, stickers, coloring books, etc. to entertain them. There were so many other families there and it was nice to see parents interacting with their children and having fun! Yay! We were not the only weird ones :-)

This led me to think about Valentines Day in a whole different way....what better way to spend it than with the ones you love with everything in you? I think that so many people have kids and then act as though they are a burden on their marriage. I mean, of course time "alone" is important to a marriage, but that can happen any day of the year! So, I think we started a little tradition in our little family :)....well, the pink pancakes for breakfast are a tradition too!

With all of that being said; our 7th wedding anniversary is fast approaching and we are in planning mode. What is funny is that we have tossed around the idea of doing another cruise but then we thought about how much fun Rachel would have on a ship and decided we will wait and do a Disney cruise as a family vacation instead. LOL....told ya', we are losing our minds :) No, we just love our little love bugs! :)

I will add some pics as soon as I upload them!
