Our Valentine's Dinner
The dinner was a big success. Keith thought it was a lot of fun, as did the kids. Dinner was nice. Keith said the steaks were cooked perfectly. I was going to make gingered carrots, but that is hard to do without any ginger. So, we ended up having plain steamed carrots. They were good too. Kyle chowed down on the food. He ate a ton of carrots and a whole red potato. Kaela and Kevin did good with their dinners too. We didn't get on their cases for not eating everything, it was Valentine's! For dessert, the kids loved the strawberries and cream over pound cake. Like I said, I had plain strawberries, but my blood sugar was still a little high after eating.
After dinner, the kids opened up their gifts from Grandma. Kevin got a Volcano book. Kaela got a Cordouroy hidden pictures book, and Kyle got an alphabet book. All books were loved and have been read over and over. They also got cards from Great Grandma and also cards from each other. We did watch Shark Tale after dinner. Kevin it liked it the best. He sat through the entire movie. Kaela and Kyle didn't have quite as long of attention spans.
After the movie, the kids went to bed and then we watched TV. Keith ended up falling asleep. He is exhausted and has been fighting a cold. He was up a lot of the night coughing. My poor guy!
Well, that is it for this post. Until next time...
