Our family has a tradition that every Valentines Day we take the family to a hotel for a little get away. This year we tried the new Marriot in Rexburg and it did not disappoint! The hotel is very very cool. The nicest I have ever stayed in. The kids were so dazzled by the decor and sliding doors. If anything, you should just go walk in the lobby to see how cool this hotel really is. Different than I have ever seen. The two queen bed room was very spacious with a couch that folds out into another sleeping space. Our family of six fit comfortably.
Of course we took advantage of the pool and swam and swam. This was Macy's first swimming experience and she loved it. She was a trooper especially since the pool was pretty cold. It took her breath away for a few seconds and then she enjoyed playing around with us. Brigham is to comfortable in the water and we had to save him several times the naughty little boy.
On actual Valentines Day we gave each of the kids a little gift basket. They were so excited, then we started the day with pink heart shaped pancakes. For dinner I made a nice dinner of Chicken Cordon Bleu. Brigham and Haylee were sick with a cold so we didn't get to go to church but had a nice time hanging out at home with each other.

That is so fun! I think one of the reasons for kids is that they make life more interesting and help us to be creative and get them involved with cool traditions like what you started here!
What a fun tradition. :)
That is such a great idea!! Creating memories, having fun, and having something to look forward to.
