years that we have been together. My fabulous sister and her equally fabulous husband got together with our kids and arranged a surprise candle light dinner for us. Over the past week my kids have been calling my sister and not letting me listen and would not let me know what they were talking about. I knew something was up but I honestly did not know the beginning of it. I thought they might be making a dinner but I thought we would all be eating together. We were told that we were not allowed to be at home from 4:30 until 6:00. When Matt and I (and Tiny A) walked into the house we were greeted by our hosts for the evening (Our 4 older kids, dressed up nicely) and then the curtains (which were hanging from the ceiling to block off our living room area) were opened to reveal a table for two decorated with candles, gems and hearts, music playing in the background and the lights dimmed. I could not
believe it. Our chairs were pulled out for us and we were seated. Our waiter (Big A) poured our very yummy sparkling Cherry Cider, and our salads were brought to us along with a bowl full of garlic french bread. Oh, we also had menus on the table. Nothing was forgotten! Tiny A soon came in and started saying, "Where's my chair?" So our kind waiter brought another chair and our candle light table for two was quickly turned to a candle light table for three. (So is the life of a parent....But would you ever trade it? Not on your life!) Then our main dish of Spaghetti was brought to us. Wow, We were stuffed! What an incredible dinner. But it wasn't over yet. The most incredible dessert ever was brought out for us. It was a very yummy chocolate cake with cream cheese dessert filling in the middle and chocolate covered strawberries all over it. This yummy dessert was made by my sweet sister. So, this Valentine night ended up being so awesome! We had the best seats in the very secluded restaurant with the best chefs available and the best service anyone could ever have. The atmosphere was the best and it was a fabulous night! The kitchen crew (ie: Becca and Stetson) were great ! The kitchen was spotless!Thank you again! It was so much FUN! I love you ALL! I Do believe I have the most amazing family! I had an amazing husband to spend the evening with, amazing children to do this for us, and an amazing sister and brother-in-law to pull this off! You are all the BEST!
