Valentine's Day/Rock Climbing

Thank goodness Hostess brought back the twinkie! The boys and I searched for a cute Valentine to give to their classmates and found this little minion idea on Pinterest. "You are one in a MINION Valentine!" My cricut came in handy to make the hearts, and Carson signed all of his.
We kept with our annual tradition of "I love you a LATTE" Starbucks drinks for their teachers on Valentine's morning too! The boys had a fun day at school and came home with lots of treats and sweet Valentine's! 
My parents watched the boys on Valentine's night and Matt and I did something a little out of the ordinary for a Valentine's date! We went rock climbing! Surprisingly, it was my idea! We've got the Savage Race coming up at the end of March, and I thought it would be fun to give this a try. We took the 30 minute class that teaches you how to tie your knots, etc and were ready for our fun adventure! 
Matt went first and took on quite a challenging wall!  
We laughed so hard because the first time Matt started coming down, I was lifted into the air! I quickly realized I had to use some major muscle (or use the anchors on the floor) and got the hang of it!  
This guy is quite the rock climbing machine!  
I surprised myself at my ability to climb too! I started off a little hesitant because of the heights, and coming down was a bit scary too, but after a couple of times up, I was climbing to the very top! 
We had such a fun time, definitely a "trust" activity for sure!  
After a couple of hours of rock climbing, we hit up a Chinese restaurant for dinner. Simple but fun date night!
