Some food for thought

Anniversary!

Soo yesterday was me and Calvin's 1year anniversary! It's hard to believe that it's already come and gone, time seems to fly by so quickly when you're having such a great time. I wish the day could have lasted forever, because it was so nice, although the weather was really crappy. despite the on going downpour of rain, we managed to have a great day. We started our day off going to church, then headed down to the Market for lunch at Blue Cactus, which was really good and apparently a pretty popular lunch time venue (sorry no pictures). Then we came back to his place, where he gave me my present=) All i can say is WOW! i was so totally speechless, it was by far the nicest, sweetest gift that anyone has ever given to me. When he told me it took him a year to make, i obviously thought he was joking, but he was serious. since day 1 Calvin has always been taking random pictures of me when i make a stupid/silly faces, and he put them all together in a collage style, printed it out and framed it in an 11x14" black frame. On the bottom it said "No matter what face you make, i'll always love you just the same." I took one look at it and I admit, some tears were shed. I definetly did not expect this, i was shocked, speechless is more like it.

We headed back to my place so i could give him his gift. which was a cd, where the songs were in chronological order to our relationship over the past year, and it came along with a self deesigned cd insert titled "The Story of Us", where inside a wrote something about each song, and what it meant to us.

then we went for dinner at Giovanni's Italian Restaurant. it was a little pricey, but worth it for a special occassion. we started the meal off with some drinks, a Pina Colada for me and a white russian for Calvin (we would've had wine, but i dont like it hehe), then we moved on to the appetizers, where we deecided to have calamari (soo yummy!!). and for the main course Calvin and i both had pasta, i had a veal pasta and calvin had his crazy seafood pasta, with mussels, shrimp, scallop, and lobster! yeah i definetly DID NOT try any of that! i overheard that the also offered Bailey's Cheesecake for deesert! EEK!!! sigh but i was waaaaay to full to add that to my tummy! abooo. oh well, we'll just have to go for deesert one night.

pictures to come....
well that was my wonderful night/day thank you so much hunnie!
