Official Valentines Day

We had such a fun Valentines Day yesterday! I have to start off with how adorable Jeff is. Jeff came home from work yesterday with flowers for me, but he also bought Elle a flower. He is such a cute dad to her and she loves him so much! It is kind of a funny story, she was totally fine with her little carnation until she saw my flowers. She broke her flower in half, and had a death grip on mine. She still is not feeling up to par, so I think this is the reason for her little unjustified tantrums these days. Jeff's comment was, "I guess she already knows that carnations are cheap :)." Anyway, it was very cute that Jeff thought of both of us this Valentines Day, we are both so lucky to have such a thoughtful husband/dad! Elle and I had a fun day making mini cherry cheesecakes with my mom and getting Valentines Day dinner ready. We brought cheesecakes into Jeff's work and then decorated his car with hearts and kisses. We also went to the middle school to decorate my sisters locker. It was a great day, I love Valentines Day!

Here is the recipe for these mini cheesecakes-they were a hit!

2 (8oz) pkgs. of cream cheese
2 eggs beaten
1 tsp vanilla
