So, every year around Valentine's Day, the parks department puts on a dance for dads and daughters. Every year, Emmy looks forward to it for weeks. She talks about it, picks out her dress and how she wants her hair. She just loves being able to spend time one on one with her dad at this special event. Kenna and John come too and they have a blast together!

| Her hair is so pretty! |

| These girls have been loving their American Girl Dolls. And what a surprise, they both picked out the same shoes to wear! |
I decided to do something different for Valentine's Day this year. Matt and I try to go out for dinner. (This year we went to Jesus Latin Grill...yummy! I didn't take any pictures!) But we wanted to make it special for the kids too. I found on Pinterest a Mystery Dinner. You assign all aspects of the meal a number and then everybody randomly chooses numbers and they are given what they order. It was a lot of fun and we had some interesting appetizer, main meal, and dessert options. Luckily we had a snow day on Feb. 12th so we had extra time to put into making the meal.

| 3 of us ended up with a hamburger as an appetizer and no drinks. |
 |
| Everyone had plates for the main course, but Landon was still waiting on his drink. Em and I both got cookies and raspberries for our main meal. |

| Here is our dessert course. |
It was a fun way to spend the evening, but it took a lot longer than a traditional dinner. I love making memories with these guys.
