New Valentines Traditions

We had a really great Valentines Day weekend. It started out with David's birthday on Friday. We had a yummy lunch at Tucanos and then my wonderful family watched Logan while David and I went home and relaxed and took a nap. It was nice to just relax. On Saturday we had a heart shaped pizza from Papa Murpheys for lunch. I want to start this every year. I think as Logan gets older he will really enjoy this every year. Then we went to the BYU basketball game with my dad and grandpa and it was a great game. They are doing awesome this year. Later we did our normal tradition of Cafe Rio for Valentines day. We have done that every year for the past 6 years. When we woke up Sunday morning Logan had been up a lot of the night not feeling well so we decided not to take him to church which gave me plenty of time to make pink pancakes for breakfast. I want to start doing this every year for Valentines Day. Next year I will buy a heart shaped cookie cutter to make pink heart pancakes. I also made David a big heart shaped cookie. My mom used to make these for us every year when we were younger and when David and I were dating I used to make them for him. I don't think I had made him one in a few years though. If you want to the recipe for it you can go to my mom's blog http://michelles10things.blogspot.com. When David got home he surprised my with flowers that he had bought last night and left in the car. I had no idea he had bought them. We decided that for Valentines Day and birthdays we were going to count our new Washing Machine and Dryer so I was pleasantly surprised. Then we gave Logan his new Backyardigans DVD we got him. We had a great weekend and can't wait to continue our new traditions next year.
