Valentine's Post

Valentine's Day came so fast. I wanted to do some sort of craft with Kono but just never got around to it and it didn't help that we didn't go shopping this month until Valentine's Day. Oh well. The only "romantic" thing that Granite and I did was eat at Red Lobster (with Kono). I told Granite to buy me nothing else but chocolates. Roses die and are a waste of money even though they are so pretty and fragrant. Years ago, Granite wanted to do something extra special so he got me two dozen roses. When I found out how much he spent on them I told him to never buy flowers for me again and rather use the money for a reasonable gift, a nice outing, or something like a spa.
We did do one activity and that was making sugar cookies. The boys had fun. This was Kono's first time making sugar cookies but he already knew what to do since he rolls and cuts out shapes with his play dough. The cookies look yummy don't they? They surely were. Kono didn't want anyone to take his pictures. I forgot to take my camera with us when we went into town and we were too tired for pictures when we got back so Granite and i don't have any pictures together this year. :(
