A Lovers Dinner Party (Feb.13,2010)

  

To celebrate Valentines Day this year we had a few friends over for a delicious dinner.  No paper plates this time!  I had fun setting the table.  It was quite cozy.

Here’s Annie digging in to her delicious potato after the salad and rolls we had as our first course.  P1020204

Britt loading up!P1020205 

Me and my Valentine!  Isn’t he cute!P1020209

Most of the night we spent laughing at the random, odd things people would come up with.  I think my favorite was Matt’s airplane with a parachute that needed to do a barrel roll before the chute could deploy.   (I know that doesn’t make sense now but it makes me chuckle as I write it in my memory log)P1020212 

After the dinner plates were cleared and we settled our full stomachs, it was time for dessert!P1020217

Chocolate dipped strawberries!  I had so much fun making them.  We had two trays full of them and most were devoured. (By Annie and me…)P1020223

 

I love this face Sean is making.  I’m not quite sure what’s going through his head but it reminds me of the yellow smiley circle guy.P1020224

Passing around the strawberries!  Yum!!P1020225

 

I think Sean picked the biggest one :0)P1020226   

Annie made this awesome Éclair cake as well.   P1020227

Everyone enjoying dessert. P1020233

Every time Britt would laugh she would tear up.  She spent most of the night wiping her eyes!  It was great :0)P1020235  P1020238

We played a game where one had to act out a mood and the others had to guess.  We were having a hard time getting enthusiasm from Matt….(yikes, do you think he’s having fun at all?)   P1020240

Just kidding ;0)  Matt had a great time and was a great sport and even laughed out loud a few times and I finally caught it on camera!  (wink, wink)P1020239

After games we took some great pictures of our Valentines couples!  I grabbed a rose and poked myself first thing and actually drew blood so here I am trying to get rid of those nasty thorns. DSC_0962
