Ok.. this is for my sister Dayna who really wants to know what we did for Valentines day. We didn't celebrate it on Valentines day for a few reason, one being that everyone under the sun would be out and doing things and because he wanted to suprise me without me expecting it.. which I didnt'.
I came home from work on the 13th and was told to change my clothes to something comfy and yet nice.. so I did.. a bit suprised that he would request such a thing.. but going along with it. I then was taken to the car and told that we were going out to eat. I was taken to a nice french resturant (yes.. I did say nice and french in the same sentence.. :P ) it was a very romantic place and the setting was just great. Then we went to have some ice cream at Swensens a very awesome icecream place. He gave me a card and some very pretty flowers. We came home and well this is where I do not tell what happened, just suffice it to say that I'm a married woman so its allowed.
On Valentines day, I had a card for him, which suprised him, since he didn't think I would get him one. I also spend the day cleaning for him. We went to church and then on the way home we talked and I treated him to dinner. It wasn't anything that was super romantic like so many people may have had done to them, but on our limited budget and being newly weds this was a great First Valentines together. I took him to a movie and dinner this weekend as a belated Valentines day gift and showered him with attention and love.. you know its not all about women.. and I think its great to be able to do that.. there is something very special about giving attention and love to the man you are married to that just makes everything else so great. I love being able to do things for him and make him happy, becuase I notice that when a man is happy he makes me happy. Granted its not all about being happy, but rather about being with one another and loving eachother and caring for eachother and that is what we do and did. I had a great Valentines day.. and It was great that we also got to see and hear other people's stories.

Awwws.. i knew he was special!.. but ya didn't need to give me that picture after ya got home.. ewwwwwws... I know ya married and all- but ya don't need to let me know when ya do it. I don't wanna know when mom and dad does it, so i kinda don't wanna know when others do it too. Anyways---.. You are right about treating the guy as a King just like he treats the girl as a Queen.
