My Valentine


Dh and I do not usually have big plans for Valentine's Day.  In our almost 18 years of marriage we have never gone out on a date to celebrate this holiday.  But with all that has transpired recently we felt like we really needed this time, just the two of us.  It was a beautiful night.  We had time to share our hearts and what we are going through.  The night sped by us.  There will be more of them in the near future.  It did our hearts good to be together.



I also remembered to have ds take a picture before we left.  More and more I am trying to capture moments and have a camera in hand.

Here we are.  Doesn't he look so very handsome.

Ds loved taking this picture. LOL

We enjoyed a marvelous dinner at a new restaurant in our area, The Iron Works Tavern.  After dinner we went to a comedy show.  The show featured Bonnie McFarlane and Rich Vos from The Last Comic Standing show.  Since the show they have married and now have a two year old daughter.  We did not plan this part of the night but because we didn't want it to end so soon we went there on a whim and there was actually some seating left.  

Overall it was a sensational night.  I will cherish these memories in my heart.  Until the next time...

What a great time you two had! You both look so lovely - it is so good when we get to spend ~real~ time with our spouses - certainly does the mind/body/soul some good!
