Valentine's Day - pre festivities

Jason and I celebrated Valentine's Day a little early this year.  We never go out on actual Valentine's Day because of all the crowds.  This year we wanted to take advantage of the Teal Deals (Jaguar season ticket holders received coupon booklets) before they expired.  We found a babysitter and headed out to Marker 32.  This was our first time trying this place, but I LOVE trying new places and it was great!  A great choice.

After dinner, we actually had time to go see a movie - yeah it's been quite awhile since we've been to a movie by ourselves.  Our choice "Little Fockers".  Quite a funny movie.

With Valentine's Day of course comes Valentine's for school and church friends.  This year Brody gave candy cars to all of his friends.  These were a little easier to make then last year's "Candy Robots".  He helped a little bit but mostly he wanted to just eat the candy - a kid after my own heart.

Valentine's Day fell on Monday and Brody doesn't go to school on Monday so he didn't get to celebrate with all of the other kids but he at least got all of the goodies later that week (he was sick on Tuesday so no school (I just love paying for school when he doesn't go and then also having to pay a babysitter - it makes my day - ha ha).  Here's some of his goodies from his class.
