The night before Josh's birthday/Valentines Day we decided to go out. Grandma Ann came and babysat. We wanted to celebrate the birthday while she was there so I made Josh a heart cookie cake and had him blow out candles (we only had pink from my birthday, sorry honey!). We went that night to see "Taken." It was so good!
Happy Birthday/Valentines Day Josh!
We have strawberry crepes every year for breakfast on Valentines Day.
While the boys went to their basketball game I went to Miss Riverton's Valentine tea. She is honestly so great.
Seriously so cute. She had people there to do the girls hair and nails and taught them to walk like a princess, and then they had a little tea.
she had a professional photographer come and take pictures of all of the girls. We got to be in them with the girls!
Our special Valentines dinner of lobster tail and steak. It was so yummy! We decided that we didn't want to go out this year on Valentines Day and leave our kids. Espcially since it is Josh's birthday and the kids wanted to spend it with him. We got amazing steaks and lobster tail for $30! The best and cheapest Valentines Day meal ever. The kids didn't like the lobster (or wouldn't try it) so I ate it all!!!!!
Make a wish!
I made Cookies and Cream cheesecake for Josh's birthday cake. The whipped topping hides the cracks...does anyone know how to prevent cheesecake from cracking in the oven?
Who could be at the door?
Valentines and treats from their secret admirers (Josh and me)The ziplock just added a bit of class to the whole thing :)

If you bake your cheesecake with a 9x13 pan of water underneath, it shouldn't crack on top.
Wrong Brooke, but it is a good idea! I'm awful at cheesecakes! Ha! That's funny there's another Brooke S. around. Now YOU need to give me some pointers on how to cook Lobster-we did the same thing for Valentine's and ours turned out rubbery! :(
You are always doing such fun things for your family! I always forget to take pictures whenever I rarely do anything that is creative! :) Sorry to hear about Josh's grandpa! What a neat funeral for your kids to see. I always love the military ones!
Those crepes look amazing. What a fun tradition!
You are the cutest mom/wife ever!

P.S. Where are Queen Bee Tea Pics? I am dying to know "see" EVERYTHING!
