Valentine's Day! Tomorrow we will celebrate our 32nd Valentine's Day as boyfriend and girlfriend. Well, yes, we are husband and wife, but we celebrated Valentine's Day before we were married, too. AND....he is still my boyfriend. Since we have service tomorrow night, my "boyfriend" decided to take me out tonight. Our oldest son stayed home and tucked the younger ones in while Brian and I actually got to be - - - alone. What a rare thing for us! We went to T. L. Maxwell's in Bakersfield. It is an elegant five-star restaurant that has a very intimate atmosphere. I chose the Halibut and it was absolutely exquisite. After the lovely dinner, we went to Barnes and Nobles and roamed the aisles before heading to Starbucks and home. Such a lovely evening that came to an end all too soon. As we pulled in to the driveway of our house, I told my husband how much I had enjoyed being with him and I hated for the night to end. His response? "It will never end." Awwwww.........I am so in love! I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day sharing love with those dearest to you.
AWWW....This is Sweet...I love you both, Happy Valentines Day to you all, Cheri
ReplyDeleteWell, Helen, there are limits to our discussions. LOL
ReplyDeleteCheri - have a good day!
Helen - P.S. - When we roamed Barnes and Nobles, I found the Henri Nouwen book you have been quoting from and I purchased it. What a great book! Thanks for introducing me to it.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like my idea of a fun date........nice dinner, Barnes and Noble and Starbucks. Glad you had a good time. :-)
ReplyDeleteHelen - interesting! I saw several different Nouwen books, but selected the devotional. I hope to add more of his books to my library.
ReplyDeleteCarol, it was a great date.
