Kristen and Matt had us over for dinner last Sunday night...we hadn't all seen each other in several weeks and hadn't seen their new countertops. I had found some heart shaped cake pans and wanted to bring dessert, but Kristen was very insistent on making a cheesecake...so I was like, ok whatever...that's fine...
Little did we know that they had a little something up their sleeves when it came time for dessert. Kristen kept telling us that she didn't know how the cheesecake was going to taste, and then wouldn't take the lid off the darn thing forever! Finally she did, and I immediately started screaming when I saw it!! But, I did have a slight advantage, because where I was sitting at the table, I had the best view of the cake and everyone else was reading it upside down and sideways.
Needless, I am a very proud Aunt!! Uncle Pete is pretty excited too!!
Steven and I both took off on Valentine's Day and spent the day together. We did something a little different, and went to DeSoto Caverns. We pretty much had the place to ourselves, other than one other couple that was there. It had been over 20 years since we both had been there, so it was fun re-living our childhood. Steven was a little bummed that he could not pan for gold, but he got over it. The tour of the caverns was pretty interesting and the pictures I took just don't do it justice to what the inside looks like. One thing I had forgotten about the caverns since my trip in the fifth grade (I think) was the 100% humidity inside. Needless to say, there are no pictures after we came out of the caverns since I resembled a poodle :) I told Steven there were no more stops and we had to go straight home.
We came home and cooked dinner and Steven enjoyed using his VDay present (from me) while while he prepared dinner :)
Steven gave me these cute bottles! I just love them! Haven't decided exactly where I will use them yet.Hope everyone spent their Valentine's Day with the one you love!
