Chris took off from work for Valentine's Day and I am so glad he did! Our day started out with Chris making us German Pancakes as requested by Elianna. Topped with Nutella and strawberry jam - hello! Valentine's Breakfast at its finest!
And then this happened after breakfast....
After a couple quick stops, we headed to Golden CO for some family fun. It was still a little on the chilly side, but we enjoyed walking around Clear Creek History Park. You know lunch tastes just a little better on a picnic table made out of old logs so that you feel as though you need to eat and then go pluck a chicken to eat for dinner {except not!}. Chris and I both unknowingly packed a special dessert to go with lunch - chocolate covered strawberries and dark chocolate covered peanut clusters.

She (obviously) loves getting her picture taken with these guys
Dinner was our all time favorite meal - meatloaf, scalloped potatoes, green cauliflower and finished off with no bake nutella cheesecakes {from MelsKitchenCafe.com}.
Oh! And I can't forget that I received some beautiful tulips from my Chris and a little monkey and some candy from both Chris and Elianna. Once again, I gave Elianna little presents {thank you after Christmas sales!} and Chris cheesy notes for the 14 days leading up to Valentine's Day.
