Valentine's Day

Today is Valentine's Day. Carson has been looking forward to this day for a long time. This was one of our busiest days in a while! I'm exhausted. First, we went to pick up our dairy from Mr. Mike (farmer). Then we went to Whole Foods and bought some filet mignons and merlot for a special dinner surprise for Daddy. After that we went to Carson's swimming lesson. It is a small class with only 2 other children. Carson forgot his goggles and one of the instructors let Carson borrow his so we avoided a major catastrophe. He put his head under one time and was very proud. Cameron and I played near the pool with his toys. They have a class for 9month olds and I am thinking about maybe putting Cameron in a class next session.
When we came home, I put Cameron down for a nap and we worked on Carson Valentine's box. We used a laundry soap box that worked just perfect.
After lunch, we went to our homeschool valentine's party. We reserved Jump Town for our group and Carson had the best time. There were so many children (almost 50!!) which means a LOT of valentines for his box. He was so excited that he started opening them in the van on the way home. He loves to read them over and over. It is nice that the party is candy-free so we don't need to worry about a bunch of junk food.
I put the nice dinner together and took a picture of Daddy as he walked in the door. He even brought a pot of mini roses for me! It was a such a nice dinner. Carson loved the candles and Cameron LOVED playing in the mashed potatoes! After dinner, I gave Carson a valentine's gift of homemade heart shaped cookies, a heart balloon and a book. He was so excited about his day. I think we are going to stay home tomorrow and sleep all day (I wish!)
