This year Clarence and I decided that we wanted to have a family Valentine's Day dinner. So, since restaurants are so busy right around Valentine's Day and especially on the big day, we decided to celebrate last Saturday. Clarence and I really enjoy going to the Melting Pot downtown. We have been just the two of us, a couple of times. Well since the boys are both older, we decided that we would venture out and take them with us. We were a little nervous about how they would behave, so we reinforced that they had to be on their best behavior. They did not disappoint us at all. They were so well behaved and enjoyed every minute. I think they realized as soon as they walked in the door that it wasn't like any place they had ever been to. I had never paid attention before, but there were actually several other children there as well. Our more picky eater, Isaac, was very open and tried everything. I was so proud of him! Alex, who will eat anything was so happy to get to try everything. We did the full four courses. We started with Cheddar Fondue, Caesar salads, a mixture of meats including chicken, shrimp, steak and lobster and vegetables and finished the night with marshmallow dark chocolate with oreos. Everything was fantastic, as usual! I think we may have just found an annual family tradition!
Last weekend we also took our doggies to get long overdue haircuts!
