On the eve of Valentine's day we had a special dinner. Avery helped me set the table and decorate it! This is something she really enjoys. We sprinkled little red rose (fake from the dollar store) petals all over the table and I told her to put some on the floor too. When Bodie walked in and saw them on the floor he said "Mess! HUGE mess!" and did this little wiping motion with his hands!
Everyone had a box of chocolates and a little present at their place setting and a name card. We used the fancy glasses and fancy plates. I BBQ'd steaks and I don't think they turned out very good. Ron said they tasted fine (but he, like his father, is a Billy Goat, and will eat anything).
I received some beautiful red roses from the boys in my life and Rowdy wrote me a "Roses are Red, Violets are Blue" poem. When Rowdy handed me the roses he said, "We picked them out at Wal-mart! The were the most expensive ones! They were 15 bucks!" Hilarious!
After dinner Ron and Rowdy went to a Portland Wrestling event with Uncle Byron and his cousin Aaron and Josh. So Avery, Bodie and I got to just hang out at home and watch movies together!
This is how Ron dressed for the Wrestling Event...
and was thrilled with his "costume" as he called it, because it got a response from one of the wrestlers. When he got home he told me that one of the wrestlers singled him out to tell him to "go back to your trailer"! What can I say...he's my Valentine!
