Code Red
L & M spent the morning at the Mom Spa which included all things red: a mani/pedi, cinnamon foot lotion, and new dresses.
All my work was immediately counterbalanced by some good ol' daddy daughter wrestling.
I gave my Valentine Ryan some time in the spa & coincidentally the same haircut as Liv (I guess that's why she's wearing a hood), who wanted a front row seat for The Cat in the Hat Comes Back. Her first time matching the twins, not to mention smelling nice, was short-lived.
I got a nap,
Red roses from Prince Charming...
Pink for the Princesses.
Ryan also tried his hand at Angel Food Cake, which when burned can turn into a number of alternatives: Fallen Angel Food Cake, Devil's Food Cake...Satan Cake. Oh we had fun with that one.
Without the burnt parts (about 50%), the cake was rather good. Here Ryan is using his turkey carving skills. Things can get a little crazy around here with all kids in bed and totally conked out by nine? Now there was a Valentine surprise straight from heaven. What did we do with all our time? That's right NBA all-stars and Devil Cake, just you try to beat that.

Happy Valentines day! I love the matching dresses and of course the squirrel pants outfit will forever be a top favorite! I laughed out loud at all of your alternative names for Angel food cake!! It looks like you guys had a great day! Love you lots, Alice
Now that is a great way to celebrate Valentines day! did you get a red shirt too, Les?
What your girls sat still long enough for both of them to get their nails done? That is fantastic. I wish that I could have seen that.
And um don't you think that you should tell Ryan to coordinate with James better for the holiday, I mean there was no man baking a cake in my kitchen that day. Bummer it sounds so yummy. The cake that is.
I think that their little red dresses are so cute, and you know that I am a big fan of Liv in the squirrel hoodie.
So glad that you were showered with flowers, cake and a NAP! What a day that must have been. The flowers are beautiful by the way. Props to Ryan for that one for sure.
Oh and by the by I love the blue paisley chairs, they are darling.
HAPPY VALENTINES! i LOVE liv's face in that picture where Ry is reading to the girls. And i love that the lollipops match their dresses! Tell maddie thanks for singing me a valentine's song! Love ya!
