An early valentine surprise




Rich has to work open to close at the bank on Friday and Saturday this week so he was able to take Wednesday off.  Since Friday is Valentine's Day we decided to celebrate a few days early. Rich had a great idea to surprise the girls by going swimming at lava Hot Springs. He made us all pancakes and eggs for breakfast and then we packed up and we're on our way. To say the girls were excited would be an understatement as they danced around the house squealing with delight. 

We spent a few hours of the pools, Jane liking the hottest water the best - crazy girl. Baby Benjamin stayed in his car seat, poolside. After swimming we went for lunch a local diner and then on the way home Rich surprised the girls with some ice cream cones from a local gas station. 

The day took longer than expected and we didn't get home until about 6 o'clock. Rich had arranged to have Maddi Larson come babysit so he could take me out to dinner at my favorite place-Olive Garden. We scampered to get ready to go and had a lovely time. I sure love my valentine.
