Valentine's Day

Hi Guys,

One of the fun things about my special "love fests" .....

Is my putting on my thinking cap and trying to come up with a new and unique way of telling my special guy how important he is to me. 

This year, I was really going into panic mode because as of Tuesday morning I just wasn't coming up with anything new and different.

My spirits have been so much on a roller coaster these past couple of weeks, that this was really hard.    And, I feel like for the past two week I keep having this reoccuring thought.  What will I do if something happens to John? 

Barbara and Richard only reenforce how precious life is.

Well, on Tuesday ... I'd had enough.  It was time for happy thoughts and grand ideas.  Afterall, that is what my sweetheart, honey bunch, cutie-pie would expect. 

And, I just can never let him down ......

I went out looking for ideas at the stores and GOT NO WHERE!!!  I went online and GOT NO WHERE!!!  I told my brain to start working and GOT NO WHERE!!! 

Now, that is not good !!!!

Low and behold ....

I started to zero in on what makes my man special.  What does he like?  What are his hobbies?  What are his dreams?

And, I went from there ...... 

And, then I had this brilliant idea .....

HE LOVES TRAINS

So, here through photographs was  my Valentine's Day gift to him.

 

  I hope you enjoy my adventure along with us.

 



I took him on a

MAKE- BELIEVE

vintage train ride

 

 

 

As the engine whistles and smoke passes our

window, we travelled together back to the

Golden Age of Travel of the 1920's.

 

Served with his very own luxury chocolates and chocolate chip cookie.

And ...

my Keepsake of his Valentine's Card to me

on Febuary 14, 2012.

Framed Febuary 14, 2013.

 

 

 

 

This time a rose for my honey

And, I just let cupid take care of the rest !!!!

 

 

 

 

 

The clink of crystal glasses will soon be filled

with chocolate milk

 

As we watched on the huge widescreen television

our very own private showing of

SUITS

 

the train makes its way

through the landscape green of Ireland.

 

 

Now, this is my make-believe trip everyone .....

 

 

 

Ireland, the Isle of Green

 is the home of family history of the

BRISLAN NAME

this romance of rails

of authentic culture

speaks softly to the heart of

My Irishman 

 

 

 

 

With springtime whispering to his senses

Memorable sounds of

Celtic Music played softly in our ears

 we talked of

 

THIS MAKE BELIEVE

 

trip to Ireland

if only in our dreams

 

 

 

 

Enjoying 

HIS 

delicious five-course dinner

 

of ALL HIS  favorites ...

oreo cookies with hearts, cinnamin rolls,

chocolate caramel candies

bacon and milk

(unfortunately served upstairs)

my man wouldn't eat by the fireplace in our real basement.

 

 

 

 

And he's thinking all the while ....

I'M NOT SHARING MY OREOS

 

 

 

Our remarkable train travel ...

wasn't I lucky to get to share it with this cute little boy !!!!

(John @ age ten years)

 

"After all this time ....

.... I've still got the biggest crush on you."
