Valentine's Day was kind of a family affair this year. We had a busy day. We started things off with our traditional 'valentine breakfast' - it used to be a dinner, but with busy teenagers, we found this to work better, and we still had chocolate fondue! My kind of breakfast. Then we all went to cheer for Benji when they won the bantam league championship bball game. Thanks to everyone who came to watch him! That afternoon we were anxious to see our friend, Elder Jeff Toone, who got home just in time for his twin sister's wedding open house. Seeing him really made us miss our boys. Afterwards the kids were starving, but where do you take a family on the busiest dining date night of the year?! So we went to 'Marley's Diner' at the new Harley Davidson site. Parker was a little nervous to go in because we were all wearing 'mormon clothes' as he put it, but his stomach prevailed. The burgers and fries were great! Luckily, I'd gotten my alone time with my Valentine on Friday night, so all in all, it was a very festive week-end!

It looks like you had a very fun Valentine's Day! Julene, you do such a good job at capturing the special moments on camera! It makes me want to be better at carrying my camera around with me. Congrats on the win Benji! Champions? That's impressive! You must have played your heart out! Miss you guys!
That sounds like fun!! I've never thought of having a Valentine breakfast before... but I can never say no to chocolate so it sounds perfect to me!! Miss you guys! It's been awhile, but it was soo good to see Taylor at Bobby's wedding! We had so much fun with him!
Hey Lady! This is Bethany, one of your Laurels from Glendale, AZ about 20 years ago. Wow that went by fast. My little sister, Nelly emailed me and said she ran across your blog. Your family is beautiful. You were such a great leader and someone I wanted so much to be like! Thank you for being such a good person and example to me!
