Still having nightmares

Boy meets girl. Boy woos girl. Boy proposes to girl. Girl says yes. Boy takes girl on fabulous Valentines Day date where the restaurant gives a rose to every lady and the menu is special just for Valentine's Day. Boy and girl marry. Next Valentine's Day, boy barely remembers to celebrate, then next year they get Chinese take out. Boy and girl have baby girl. Boy and girl do nothing on Valentine's Day. Next year, girl's parents intervene and give gift card and offer to keep baby girl while boy and girl go out! Boy shaves his face like this: girl cries. Just like last time he shaved his face like this.

Seriously, can you imagine any worse look for Woody? Maybe if he'd parted his hair right down the middle to go with this....this mustache?!

I actually had a great Valentine's Day! Boy finally took off the mustache and we went to dinner then watched UK beat UT. Children are great fun at holidays. My resolution to enjoy winter brought me to celebrating Valentine's Day (one of winter's holidays, of course) with fun things for Hope and Mom. We baked cookies! Hope is showing you how she stirs. These are not actual action shots as you can imagine that got a little hairy at times. I had managed to find a recipe that did not use eggs which was good as Hope ate lots of the dough. Her job was to press out the cookie hearts and also to stir the icing. Fun times.

We also decorated our Valentine's cards which we made all by ourselves of course!

She's pleased with her work. Good job Hope! Mommy is so proud.
