Our Valentines day was spent on Friday and Saturday because a weeknight date is never possible when you live 4 hours away from each other and have school and work to attend. The thing about being so far away from each other is that we really appriciate the times we get to spend together. Sitting down to a two hour dinner and ballet feels like we won the relationship lottery. 4 whole hours, just Dan and I, and no homework! That hasn't happened in a year.
The fun started Friday with gift opening. I got an adorable scarf from Urban Outfitters that has owls on it and Bedknobs and Broomsticks on DVD.
Dan got a Star Wars Lego Tie Fighter to build, which he wanted no help on. :)
The fun continued into Saturday when we went to McCormick and Schmicks for dinner and then walked across the very cold Fountain Square to watch the Cincinnati Ballet in Carmen. Nothing is better than sharing a good meal and a bottle of wine!
I was also surprised by 2 dozen roses at my door Saturday afternoon while I was getting ready. They still look pretty good.
All in all it was a fun, short, and great weekend. There was a lot of homework on Sunday (Dan), a lot of whining about homework (me), and a lot of snuggling with our favorite crazy cat.
May, shes a great study buddy :)
We hope everyone else had a great weekend and Valentines celebration.
Jess
