Valentine's Day!

Trent and I had a wonderful Valentine's Day. We celebrated twice this year. Last weekend with dinner out at one of our favorite restaurants Bob's. Then last night we celebrated with one of our favorite traditions fondue at home. Fondue takes great preparation at our house. First, we have to clean off the table and lay down papers everywhere so the oil doesn't splatter:













Trent whips up these fabulous sauces to dip our meat in. A horseradish and ketchup mixture.












And we have these fabulous twice baked potatoes:














For dessert I made homemade strawberry cupcakes with homemade strawberry icing. The icing turned out a little too sugary, but the cupcake was good. At least Trent seemed to enjoy them:







Then it was time for Trent's Valentine's present. I got him a shirt from one our favorite shows Friday Night Lights (see post below on how to help save this great show). You have to watch the show to truly appreciate the shirt, but Trent was excited!

Very impressed with the fondue at home! We've done that once and decided it was easier to fork over the $$ and go to the Melting Pot.

Where are the pics of you??? :) You better at least post a picture of the two of you before you go in on Tuesday. I can't wait for Hudson to arrive!
