Valentines Day

We have two fun traditions in our family for Valentines Day.
#1
Colin has the boys dress up in their suits and ties, and we deliver chocolates to all the widows in our ward. The boys also pick a few women they want to take some to too. This year it was a babysitter, and primary teachers. They are the cutest things.
(Jack also bought a rose for Lucy and Naomi, what a ladies man, AND a chip off the old block!)


#2
We have "dinner in the dark". Most people would call it a candlelight dinner, but my kids call it that. I set the table, put their valentines on their plates, light the candles, and turn out the lights! We also have sparkling cider and do "Cheers." It is a great night, and lots of fun to hear what they cheers to.:)

  1. What a cute family! Love all the traditions. My kids were laughing so hard with Rosies cute noises. Love this age!

  2. The first tradition (with the boys giving something to the widows) made me teary eyed. If Roger approves someday, I'd like to do this tradition as well.
