My Dh and I usually have a special sit down dinner that we prepare together.


Cream of watercress soup


Julienne of zuchini


Rack of lamb


Potatoes Dauphinoise with wild mushroom


Cour a' la creme fraiche


Heart shaped sugar cookies


Champagne


I Know it sounds like a lot but with the two of us it was super simple. The kids even helped by doing preperations and making the sugar cookies.


We liked this so much last year that Dh and I are thinking of doing it again this year. We had our boys dress up in suits and we took our picture in front of a giant heart decoration that the kids and I made out ouf posterboard. The kids loved having a "grown-up" meal and getting their own sip of Champange.


We have also taken our children out for a special lunch then Dh and I have gone out to a special dinner.fsad

Our anniversary is Feb 18, so we usually just exchange a kiss & some candy on valentine's day, then try to do something for our anniversary. This year is our 10th, so hopefully we'll get to do something really nice :o)


We'll probably get the kids some candy, and let Natalie

We don't have anything special planned.
It is just another day for us. Each day is full of love to each other :)
