A day of love

Valentine's Day isn't a huge holiday at our house, and I'm working on that. I decided I'd rather celebrate as a family though and avoid some of the commercialism. I made John an "I love you because ___" sign that will be up in our bedroom. The boys got some chocolates from Grammie Pammie, which I may or may not have passed off as my own -- I can't remember! 
They were super pleased to have some tattoos to try out on their arms.
We also made homemade pizzas, if you look closely you can take a gander at that heart shaped pizza. One of my many uni-taskers that John makes fun of in my kitchen. Although I'd like to argue, I can also make a heart shaped-cookie with the pan, so take that!
After pizza, we had chocolate-dipped strawberries, hand-dipped by the cutest little boys in the county.
I highly recommend doing this as a family, perhaps not with company -- unless you have your own dipping stations for each family -- my boys also decided chocolate covered fingers were practically as good as the berries.
And yes, dressing in red and gray is a requirement.
