Be my Valentine!
Wow, I somehow can't fathom the fact that Ben and I have had 4 valentine's days together. Time goes so fast! Each year it seems he plans something more and more exciting. The first year we were together, we went to the Sugar Shack (a cozy old building in the woods) on his family's farm where he had a fire burning inside, and Wendy's burgers! Ha...we were so addicted to wendy's at that time. The second year we dinner at Ric's Grill in the top of the water tower in Lethbridge. Last year we spent our night with Kevin and RJ in the restaurant in Harbour Centre in downtown Vancouver. Its basically a version of the Calgary tower that spins around throughout your meal. So Erin I know what you mean....it seems the more expensive the meal the smaller the portions!! Ben and Kevin were still hungry after the meal....of course. THIS year though seemed extra special. I got a beautiful bouquet of roses, some COFFEE chocolate, and caramel machiato yogurt, and the Black Beauty DVD...then Ben took me to Lucerne....which is where I've determined is possibly the most beautiful place I have ever been. in the city centre it has a deep-green coloured lake, with these old walking bridges over it dating back to 1333! Old things fascinate me so much. The city is surrounded by the Alps. We basically wandered all over the city and enjoyed the view and each other. Then to top it off, rather than going to a crazy-expensive Swiss restaurant (which costs a billion dollars) we found the most fancy McDONALDS we could find! (Erin you're not alone!) And it was STILL 23 francs....for two regular cheeseburger meals! I don't even want to know how much it would have cost if we went to a "real" restaurant! Anyways, it was a super time and we will have some pictures to follow.
Have a great day Everyone!!
Hugs, Johanna

Awe...that is cute. OF course this year would be extra special..lucky duck....to be in Switzerland...ahh...
Wow I can't believe we weren't the only ones that went to McDonald's on Valentine's Day! You know what though? It doesn't matter if you go to a fancy restaurant, it can still be just as romantic! And who doesn't love a double cheeseburger?
Sooo Valentines that lameo day that everyone is talking about. Mine was nothing special, and I've been VERY tempted to eat the chocolates that I got my mother... cause she never came to hang out with me... OH WAIT! I had to work all day, in the house where I get hit and people swear at me. Then I went home and drank a bottle of french pink champnage cause I was told; by the person that I wanted to share it with; it's "gross" Thank goodness that it was only a 200ml bottle too...
Jojo thanks for the details about the trip... Is that time in April the best for you, or can I come another time? What is the weather llike right now? Can I knit on the flight over? Is there hot men there that I marry and then never come back to Canada?
hahaha
Heeey!
Your Valentine's Day sounds so nice! It'd be so nice to visit a place like Switzerland. Anyhow, I haven't had a chance to post yet that I pray God blesses you two in Switzerland and that it'll be an amazing experience.
Glad you had a good valentines day! But you should email your sister or something hint hint ;)
