My amazing master's graduation evening from my wife
Normally this blog is used for music posts. However, my wife did something really cool tonight and instead of formatting an entire web page, I figure this is what blogs are made for.
Background:
I finished my master's degree in Information Technology a few weeks ago. We made a big deal for Angie when she finished hers, so she planned on returning the favor. For weeks she has kept me in suspense. I was convinced we were going to a fancy new restaurant or doing something we have never done. Her only hint to me was that this was something I had mentioned in passing.
Tonight:
I get home not knowing what to expect. She had steaks seasoned and ready, along with one of my favorite varietals of wine:
As I put the steaks on the grill, she drops these lovely beauties on me. Bacon-Wrapped Scallops!
So things have obviously started off to a wonderful pace. Here is my gorgeous plate complete with herb butter:
At this point I'm pretty happy. I truly have an amazing wife, and she cooks for me all of the time so I knew she had more in store. All she would tell me is that we needed to be done by 7 pm. I asked 100 questions, each of which she evaded like a pro. For all I know she is an active CIA agent. Next came dessert and my favorite: Cheesecake!
Ok this has got to stop, right? I mean what else could be forthcoming? It was about that time that I saw a minivan creep past the house. I mentioned it and she tried to play it off. Shortly after, I saw our friends who are professional massage therapists come up the walkway. I was pumped! I had told her a while ago that I would love to have a couple's massage.
She took the liberty to set it all up and surprise me on this special evening. One of the great things about our friends is that they run a service where they will come to your home. It is extremely convenient and practical.
Here we go, all set up in our dining room that has no table.
Here we are ready for a relaxing one-hour massage in our own home. Bliss!
This is how we ended off. I would like to thank my awesome wife for a very unexpected and special evening. It was definitely something I will never forget.
