Valentime's Day

I sent this to Tyler on Valentine's Day and asked him if he loved our kids just a little bit less now. 

Valentines... Valentimes... it's just a fun day to tell my family how much I love them!

Random fact: Do you know what Tyler's love language is? Cookies. 

I made 80 chocolate chip cookies, and I'm pretty sure Tyler ate 60 of them. 

 We had our traditional fancy dinner

 Then the kids got to open some presents from us. They got their own boxes of Oreos, a movie, and a new book for each kid.

 They wasted no time reading their new books. How cute are these pictures? Makayla read to Brynnli and it was the cutest thing. Caden got his very first chapter book, and that may have been even cuter. 

 We topped off the night with chocolate dipped strawberries for dessert (and chocolate chip cookies for Tyler... I'm pretty sure he ate those for dessert).

You might be wondering how Tyler and I spent our romantic Valentine's night? In a parenting class... learning how to teach your kids expected and unexpected behavior management. It was very romantic.

And that right there sums up almost 10 years of marriage.
