Valentine's Day

For a couple years now, every Valentine's dinner, we made a special dinner for daddy and momma, which they ate upstairs in our girls' room. This year we decided to have big family affair. We all helped cook turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, onion green beans, rolls, veggies, and pumpkin pie. We girls put our money together and bought everyone Valentine's candy. Before we started eating, Daddy told us that each girl had something under her plate. Daddy and the boys had written us sweet cards! After we enjoyed the meal, we children opened our candy bags and soon we started a game with the sweet heart candies. Matthew would pass one that said "My Cutie" to me, and I'd pass one that said "My boy" back to him.=) After the table was cleared and the dishes washed, we took a few family pictures, then watched a few "Gomer Pyle USMC" episodes.


What did you all do for Valentine's Day?
