Valentine's Day

Can I just start by saying that I have the best husband ever? (Okay, so I'm a little biased...but really, he's amazing!)
The basketball season ended Friday. Well, maybe I should say that it was supposed to end Friday. Unfortunately, with the winter weather in the forecast, the JV game was canceled so that the varsity team could play earlier. So, the boys finished their season with practice on Thursday. Lacrosse season was starting on Monday, so Drew planned for us to have a romantic getaway at the Blake Hotel downtown over the weekend.
Saturday, we took Bella to a sitter and then went to the Hickory Tavern to watch the Maryland-Duke game. While there wasn't a W added to Maryland's record...we enjoyed the food and drinks...and each other's company. :)
Saturday night, we went to McCormick and Schmick's for dinner...filet mignon, lobster bisque, crab cakes, cheesecake...my oh my! It was DELIGHTFUL. When we got back, there was champagne and chocolate covered strawberries waiting for us.
It was so much fun to have a night away without really having to go away. Drew surely does spoil me --- and I love every minute of it! I'm so blessed to have him!
Now, if we could just make Valentine's Day come around more than once a year... hee hee hee.
