Valentine's Dinner at Home

OUR VALENTINE'S DINNER at HOME (yes, Tee is wearing a pink skirt. He insisted...demaded to put it on)

This was the star of the evening... COCONUT SHRIMP with PINA COLODA dipping sauce. Shanda did a great job "butterflying" the shrimp.
Along with the shrimp. we had wings, broccoli, and salad. All the kids have mustaches from their crystal light drinks! Avery and Jett liked the wings, but passed on the shrimp (whose kids are those??) Duce at a man's portion of everything. Josie started off just eating the batter off the shrimp and then realized she actually liked the shrimp. Tee only ate his broccoli. He missed his nap today, so he went to bed before dinner was actually over.
The love of my life and my one and only VALENTINE!!! (he told me to sit my pregnant self down, and he did the dishes!)
Now these two...this was take 127...they just could not get a normal looking kissing picture! All the kissing was not missed by the kids, who were screaming in the family room "KISSY KISSY....OOH they're KISSING!"
The kids enjoying their dessert. I made this last year. DELICIOUS! A puff pastry bundle with chocolate bar/kisses inside topped with fresh whipped cream and chocolate ganache! I also made these little jello-y trifle-y cup things, but we were all too stuffed to eat them, so they will be saved for another night this week.
