Making yummy chocolate covered strawberries. Easy-peasy, right?

BEFORE

AFTER

These pictures crack me up every time I look at them. The boys and I were making strawberries for Daddy. I decided I needed to move the strawberries to a pan while holding the pan with my belly (don't ask. Note to self: get pan BEFORE dipping). All that chocolate scrumptiousness ended up on the floor in a big heap. LUCKILY, all but two stayed on the parchment paper and were therefore ugly but completely edible as Kyle and Noah will demonstrate below.

They were definitely still delicious and Adam didn't even notice their pitiful state.

My Funny Valentine's

Adam was out of town for Valentine's Day but that didn't mean I was left Valentineless. In fact I had TWO and boy are they sweet.
I won't lie to you though. This was probably my least favorite V-day. Okay, not probably. It WAS...by far! As much as I LOVE watching "Mickey Mouse Playhouse" on the night for lovers well... My honey who has been my Valentine for the past 6 years was nowhere NEAR me on the 14th of February. When I told people that Adam was going to be out of town for V-day, I was loaded with sympathy and plenty of "Ohhhhhhhh!" 's. I shrugged them off honestly feeling it was no biggie. I was wrong. By the time evening rolled around I was feeling pretty pathetic and lonely. Keep in mind that Adam had been gone for 4 days by this point. A long time for me! And to top it off we had barely managed a "hello" by phone all day. It also didn't help that everyone's status on Facebook stated that they had had the "most wonderful Valentine's EVER." Well, that's funny because mine was the WORST ever. Okay not really.
So now that a few days have passed and Adam is home I've decided that I'm just grateful that I have a wonderful husband who is my Valentine year around. Who needs Valentine's Day anyway? Not me...I think...
BTW- Adam made it up to me when he got home.
You can go ahead and get your mind out of the gutter now.

How bad could V-day be with these two monkey's?!
