The boys really got into Valentines Day this year. Saturday we hung out as a family rather than Luke and I heading off to dinner by ourselves. Luke and I didn't need the extra calories and didn't want to spend a fortune on eating out, baby sitter, etc. So we stayed home.......
On Sunday, Luke wasn't feeling well and had been down with a migraine most of the day. Late that afternoon the boys told Luke and I to come downstairs. Both Ben and Jake will take our hands and say "close your eyes still, close your eyes still, close your eyes still" until we get to the surprise. We went downstairs and all of their toys were picked up and pillows and blankets were on the couch, etc. Jake and Ben picked up their rooms, living room and kitchen. It was great! Finally, they announced they were having our "wedding supper". They wanted the candles on the stove lit and placed on the table. It was all very thoughtful. The boys even helped with dishes (not sure if I can use "help" in that sentence) but they tried. Jake was soaked and was down to his "chonies" by the end of dishes.
Here is a picture of my two little helpers....
