Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day! So what are you plans for Valentine's Day? Dan and I planned on go to lunch yesterday to a nice italian restaurant. Just the two of us while the kids were at school. Well you know what they say about the best laid plans! The boys were off Monday and Tuesday from school due to snow. As I was getting them ready yesterday (feeling certain they would have school) I almost didn't bother to check the TV to see if school had been cancelled. I decided to humor myself since the TV was on anyway and lo and behold NO SCHOOL! I have to admit I was really looking forward to them having school because we had lunch plans and they have been so bored for the past two days. Dan and I decided we had to get them out of the house for a while for our own sanity and theirs. We took them to lunch (not to the italian restaurant I was looking forward to) but at a kid friendly restaurant. They enjoyed their lunches but let's just say my lunch at the other restaurant would have been much better! Then to burn off some of their pent up energy we took them bowling. Not the way I imagined it but the kids had fun!

Tonight Dan works late and I have parent teacher conferences at the school. And in case you are wondering they did go back to school today much to Ethan's dismay. Did I mention they are off from school on Friday and Monday? Luckily we are going to my sister's house for the weekend so I am sure our little weekend getaway will do us all good!
