About mid-afternoon on Sunday, EA declared the day to be the Best Valentine’s Day Ever!
I agree. It was the absolute best!
And here’s a walk through our day to see why.
I awoke Sunday morning to the most beautiful vase full of dozen roses. Even the girls were excited over their Mommy’s flowers. EA did ask if her Daddy went on flowers (dot) com.
We spent the morning worshiping at our chapel on post. This is the best chapel we’ve been a part of. I look forward to it each Sunday, and the girls love it too! We even sang MC’s favorite hymn, “Holy, Holy, Holy”.
Keith surprised me by taking us all out to lunch at one of my favorite restaurants, Red Lobster. The kids had a blast watching the live lobsters in the tank!
When we came home EA, MC, and Will spent their quiet time watching a Valentine’s Day special on Sprout, their favorite channel (also the only channel they’re allowed to watch).
I went on my weekly grocery shopping trip and found the most adorable children’s aprons on sale at Kohl’s.
They were perfect for EA and MC to wear while they baked heart shaped Valentine’s mini-cakes with Mommy! We had such fun together in the kitchen and it was made even better by taking treats over to their friends next door.
They were able to enjoy their cakes with complete reckless abandon!
Especially Will…he loves to enjoy his food with reckless abandon. And I didn’t complain about cleaning the floor when he was done!

Looks like the “bestest” to me…
Sweeping after each meal became a necessity once our boys were born too! The girls were not *near* as messy!!
