LOVE IS IN THE AIR

It's a wonderful feeling, knowing that you've met the person with whom you will spend the rest of your life. I realized this a while ago, but on Valentine's Day, I couldn't get it out of my head. The day began with breakfast at my favorite breakfast spot. Will kept bringing up little surprises throughout the day. Like the croissant he bought beforehand for me to eat with my omelette. It might seem small but it was so thoughtful of him to remember little details (like the fact that I love to sandwich omelettes in soft butter croissants). But it was when we went to view our first potential apartment that our future together began to become more and more real. The thought engraved itself in my mind for the day, making my Valentine's experience that much more amazing.

After viewing the apartment, Will took me to see the breathtaking Venice (California) Canals for the first time. 

 

 We found a Thai restaurant near the water and he gave me a beautiful rose after lunch.

He took me to the highest rated comic book store on Sunset because he knew I would love it. Afterwards, we headed off to Griffith park where we sat in the grass and talked about - get this - the Theory of Relativity and Gravitational waves (among other things). How romantic right? Of course, that's not all we talked about. It was a serene moment of deep talks and just appreciating each other's presence. We ended the night out with a candle-lit three course meal at a fancy French restaurant. It was a very intimate setting and the chef even came by to greet us before dessert.

For Valentine's Day, I made Will this 11x14 "Remember When" poster

Rather than pay to have it designed, I made it myself using Photoshop (and it was actually a lot of fun). It looked wonderful in its 16x20 matted frame. The hardest part was choosing what memories to include. I had what I thought was a short list of a few memories but I ended up having to delete a lot of what I wrote because they wouldn't fit on the poster.

We ended our perfect night with wine and a movie. I couldn't have asked for a better Valentine's Day. And I couldn't have asked for a better man to love me.
