This turned into a family trek, stick hunting along the river. I have a habit of accumulating sticks. I love having them in the house, so i am always looking. There is a stick project to come, made by my wonderful husband....i can not wait!
Anyway, i digress...we grabbed some lunch and checked out the visitors center and museum here. The kids loved it...especially Mitch, lots of weapons! On the way home i mentioned this lookout point that i remembered so we took the kids there and ended up having a leisurely trek through the woods, exploring and enjoying the woods so close to our house. We were tired but had enjoyed every minute. This picture of Mitch was taken by Avery, as was the one of her at the end.
Super Husband/ Daddy/ the best Valentine ever made us heart shaped pancakes for dinner. We got the table all decked out and had dinner by candlelight(something we should do more often, it is a lot of fun).
My three valentines are wonderful...it was a great day!

duck duck geese :) girl, I would have ducked too. Geese scare me (and they poop a lot). Cute pancakes! We finally got to pick Craig up from the airport in Nashville at 6:30pm - he's been gone for a couple weeks so we're just glad to have him home! Love Mitch's camo knitted hat! Did you make that (I'm sure :) I made baby hats for gifts for a while but they took a long time. I need to find an easier hat pattern! Here's a dumb question for you (but I guess not so dumb from a non-quilter) - can you (I) quilt on a 'normal' sewing machine? It doesn't seem like something my machine would be able to do (I could look at the manual, but it's more fun to ask an expert :)
oh, and we rescheduled our Valentine's date for Monday too :) Craig was supposed to be home on Thursday. Thanks, Army.
Looks like a WONDERFUL day. Glad you could spend it with your loveys.
Your pancakes came out a lot nicer than ours! Ours had more of an impressionist look to them!
Glad your day was nice!

Heart shaped pancakes???? How absolutely wonderful. Sounds like you guys had such a lovely Valentines.
Looks like a wonderful weekend. I'm still reading often, just not able to respond as much. Love getting a glimpse into your daily lives.
I meant to tell you I WANTED to make heart shaped pancakes for breakfast but we didnt have any heart shaped cookie cutters...:o( Poor planning on my part. There is always next year. BTW-LOVED the table cloth... is it a real cloth or just fabric?
that is a tablecloth! real cloth
Is it a William Sonoma tablecloth?
PS- will call tomorrow.
Love the pic that Avery took of Mitch. Very frame-able.
