Valentine's Day

I decided it would be fun to give treats everyday of the week leading up to Valentine's day. It was fun watching the kids either find what they got or "when do we get our treat".

We've never really done anything big for valentine's day. Occasionally we would get Lee's chocolates and pig out, but we have tried to go to dinner. We lucked into some reservations at Cafe Vincino's, not a bad little Italian restaurant. I had the quail and James had the Ahi. The caprese wasn't worth the $7.50 but the creme brulee was great.

I have a goal this year to have a family fun activity once a quarter. Debating the long weekend; tubing or movie, we got a call on Friday night (9 pm) to clean the chapel. The people that signed up used Valentine's day as an excuse not to do it. Now I could go on about my thoughts on this but I will spare anyone who might read this. I wasn't too happy, but I decided it would qualify for our family fun activity as service is always good. Dutch Bros coffee was have $1 16 oz drinks as afterwards we went for hot chocolate. There was a bit of a wait so the picture is of the kids being goofy.
