Our Valentines Day

So you all know once you have kids Valentines Day isnt filled with fancy dinners, or romantic evenings...... hardest night EVER to find a sitter and you definetely dont wanna take them to a restaraunt to wait for hours on end. At least we dont. Not to mention, like Ashley :), I think Valentines Day is really such a lame holiday. Why one day outta the year we are supposed to tell that special someone we love them, it should be happening everyday. I dunno... never been a Vday fan. So Luke wanted to make the kids and I a big crab legs feast that night (our favorite dinner to go to is at Fishermans in San Clemente and we get the crab feast, really only a special occasion meal cuz its so expensive). Well I decided to go do something fun instead and take the kdis to the one place we knew wouldnt have a wait on vday! Yup, Chuck e Cheese's. Jack was so excited. And cranky Wyatt did a 180 as soon as we got there and was the happiest kid ever. Ahhhhhhhhhhh, the magic of Chuck E. Even as much as Luke hates going there (so he says) he always has a great time. I always catch him playing all the games by himself if he sees Im occupying kids. Too funny. We won a TON of tickets in the short time we were there. Jacks favorite thing now is feeding the tickets through the ticket counter. Luke showed him how on the first little bit then he wanted to fly solo. Anyways, it was a fun night, the kids were beat. We came home, put them to bed, opened a bottle of wine and died laughing at Rob and Big, literally we were both crying during this episode. Love that show. So all and all a Valentines Day that fit us well.....
