Valentine's Day

This year's Valentine's Day was very special to me. Last year we did not celebrate at all, so I did not expect much this year either. Well how wrong I was! I woke up and saw these beautiful pink roses on the table!

When Ben was on his way home from work he called me and said: "Get ready, we are going out for dinner, we'll leave when I'm home, put on some lipstick!" That was all the information that I got. So I did as he said and waited nervously until I heard his keys in the lock. I tried hard but he wouldn't tell me where we were going. The drive was so long! We were driving out of the city and I began to wonder where he'd take me . Well after an hour's drive I knew - it was an Austrian Schnitzelhaus! "I know you have been homesick lately so I thought the Schnitzelhaus will cheer you up" he said.  It definitely did! It was a 4 course dinner and Ben and I were so full after I thought he might have to roll me to the carpark. The date wasn't finished then. "We have to be fast now we're having another stop!" I couldn't believe it! What happened to my unromantic boyfriend, that thought bringing home flowers is the most romantic he can ever do? It was like a dream. We just arrived on time to the movie "The Descendants", where we cuddled up at the best seats he possibly could have reserved.

It was a long Valentine's Day when we went to bed at about 11.30 but it was so good. I think it was the best one I have ever had! Thank you, Ben!
