OK, I know these aren't the best photos but we had a different kind of Valentine's Day this year. My kids were all given the opportunity to have a special party as their basketball teams met to make Valentine's, eat snacks and then take the cards to a local nursing home to hand them out. After passing out their special creations, some of the kids performed a mini-concert for the residents and the rest were able to sing a song or two. I was glad to see the kids get the opportunity to serve others and make the day special for someone who truly needed it.
As for my man & I, we took off that weekend for 24 hours without kids. A hotel to ourselves, good food with no cooking, an exciting movie and sleeping in were some of the highlights. Reminiscing about the many times, both good and bad, that we've shared over the past 16 years was the best part. There is so much to be grateful for and God's faithfulness has been evident through it all.
Hope you had a special Valentine's Day as well.

I love the way you chose to serve with your kiddos for V-Day! And I'm also so glad you and your hubby had a little getaway--what a blessing!
The party looked fun. Too bad I couldn't come... :)
