Yesterday was Valentine's Day. It was different from any other Valentine's Day we have ever had, and yet it was possibly one of the most special.
Elsie got into the spirit early, dressing up for her class party on Friday. She was really excited about her pretty pink outfit and was excited to share her Stitch valentines.
Valentine's Day itself started with a very special experience. Quincy and Colvin both went to the temple to take out their endowments before they both leave on their missions. Jeremy and I were able to be there along with my parents, and of course Ben and Becca. To say that it was a special experience would be a gross understatement.
After we were done at the temple, Emily met us with Merrick, Carrigan, Elsie, Lincoln, and Isabel so we could all have a celebratory lunch.
Speaking of Emily, yesterday was Elsie's Auntie Day. She spent the day with Emily getting nails done, going to the movies, getting treats and going to a crystal shop.
When she got home, we finally had a chance to do our love hunt. This year, the gifts at the end were things they would want for our upcoming cruise.
Jeremy and I eventually snuck away for an hour to grab something to eat, but it was late by that point and we didn't go anywhere too fancy, or fancy at all actually.
Like I said, it was not a typical Valentine's Day, but it was really special and one not soon to be forgotten.
