Sometimes...It's the Simple Pleasures That Count

Yesterday, I had the wonderful opportunity to get alone time with my beautiful wife. Steff and Russell watched our boys so that Joi and I could have a date. I came home from work to find one of my favorite meals prepared for me. Joi had done herself up in a very captivating manner and she looked beautiful. We enjoyed a quiet dinner together and it was delicious. Afterward, we went to the cheap theater (called the Elvis Theater, here in Colorado) and we enjoyed a movie together. We saw "Prince of Persia: Sands of Time" and enjoyed it. It's definitely a boy movie. A little gory in parts and maybe a little too scary for our boys right now...but in a year, they'll love it. Lots of fighting and jumping around. I had a wonderful time with my wife. It wasn't necessarily the food or the movie...it was the company. I enjoy spending time with my wife and getting alone time with her is few and far between...so I cherish it when it comes. I enjoy my wife. I look forward to the day when we get more and more time alone together. She's definitely a keeper!!!
