Did you add a little romance back into your relationship this weekend? Hallmark holiday or not, I was able to share some romance with my husband that I will remember for a long time to come! My husband has maybe one romance bone in his body so, this makes it extra special.
The weekend before Valentine's, I asked him if we could do a date night. We set it up and were able to have a lovely evening. Valentine's day, we had both the kids so I made a special dinner of rib eye steak and shrimp cocktail(he likes it, I don't) and scrumptious mint chocolate chunk brownies! We watched Chronicles of Narnia and spent time hanging out with the kids.
The kicker, he asked me to paint a picture with him. Something we could do together. Wha....???? I was surprised to say the least, and then thought it was just.too.sweet! Artistically it may not be all that but, I will be keeping this picture in our room to remember a time when we both did something together and enjoyed working as a team. We don't do it often enough anymore and I must say, we are at our best when we work as a team!
I also got a little unmentionable too! Another first in our relationship. I don't care if you do something together on a holiday or you do it when you carve out the time but, honestly, it's sooo important and always brings us closer together when we make the extra effort!
I have to brag on the Hubs because it only comes around once every so often. =) Above is picture of said "project". It's gonna go in my room to remind me that we do have the ability to be romantic. heh
