Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! Our Valentine's Day celebrations began on Saturday when Greg and I went out to Olive Garden for dinner. We had hoped to avoid the Valentine's rush by going out before it was actually Valentine's Day, but it was still pretty busy there. It was also very delicious! Then on Sunday after church we made white chocolate cherry Valentine's cookies (Grandma F.T.'s pudding cookie recipe--the best cookie recipe in the world) and took them to our friends the Atkins. The Atkins then invited us over for Family Home Evening last night, which was SO MUCH fun. Their kids are really cute, and we had a nice lesson about friendship, followed by a fun activity of making valentines. It also snowed yesterday, which was kind of exciting since we've been a little short on snow this year (but I'm not going to complain about that). Today Greg and I both had the day off, so we slept in, had lunch at Smashburger (their sweet potato fries are divine), and then tonight we are going to watch the Valentine's Day episode of NCIS while eating our Papa Murphy's "Heartbaker" (heart-shaped) pizza. Sounds like the perfect Valentine's Day to me!
