Woke up early that morning and got ready for the kiddos. Dave made yummy heart-shaped chocolate chip pancakes.
After breakfast, we headed to Lowe's where the kids were able to built a little jewelry box.
Later, we went by Grannie and Papaw's to deliver little Valentine's goodies the kids had made for them. Natalia made a bookmark, Carson decorated a heart and Luke made a heart with beads. Right after that, it was time to get busy for that evening's dinner.
Like I said earlier, it was not quiet and romantic, but it was a lot of fun. This year, we decided to invite a few families over for dinner. I cooked Smitten Kitchen's meatballs and spaghetti. I highly recommend this recipe. Everyone seemed to like it very much. Lindy and Lucy brought the bread. Lucy helped me by cooking the spaghetti and then, she stayed and helped me clean all that mess up! (Thank you soooo much Lucy!) Heather & Dru brought a fabulous salad, Matt and Elizabeth brought the drinks, Kristi and Brian were in charged of the paper goods and Brooke and Eric brought some beautifully decorated chocolate covered strawberries. And last but not least, Dave made the delicious Chocolate Pot O'Creme. Very Yummy! Another recipe we highly recommend. Sorry don't have any pictures of this exquisite dessert. Brooke took a picture of one that was eaten already. As a matter of fact, if you want to see more pictures of the party, that's where you are going to find them. I guess, I was a little preoccupied that night and didn't get many photos :0(.
There were 9 kids under the age of 7! Overall, they did great and had a fun time.
