Valentine and Easter 2010

We had a blast sharing our Valentine traditions with Brad and Kendall and their two sweetie kids this year! Scott and I figure that it is really fun right now in our lives to include our kids in our Valentines Day traditions! We keep it simple and family friendly... I order a heart shape pizza from Papa Murphy's, and while its cooking the kids make valentine cards for each other, and I set up the table to have an elegant candle-light pizza dinner. The kids love that I sprinkle valentine candies, like confetti, all over the table! Its SO fun, every year!





Kendall made the DELICIOUS Valentine's dessert! Flourless Chocolate Cloud Cake, with fresh-made Raspberry syrup! SO YUM!

Easter was SO fun as well! We all got new mits and baseballs in our Easter baskets! The kids also LOVED dressing up in their Easter clothes for brunch at G&G Mack's!

We LOVE the tradition of Easter Brunch as Scott's parent's home every year! We endulge in huge Belgium waffles, delicious fruit bowl and pudding dip, and Grandma Mack's famous sausage and egg casserole... I am usually not a fan of sausage, but her casserole is SO delicious! I look forward to it twice a year, Christmas and Easter! We also played some catch with our new mits and had a GREAT Easter egg Hunt! SO much fun!!!
