Valentine's Day

... was wonderful, for more reasons than one. Remember a while back when I wrote about my one course that had to be done by mid-February? Well, it's done now, and I handed in my final paper on Valentine's Day. Made for a very full day, since I spent most of it trying to finish it up and finish it well, but it's done now and I'm so excited! =D

Dan took me out for supper at the Mission (the nicest place in town). We had baby ribs with salad and fries, and a brownie sundae for dessert. SO yummy! We ended up staying at the restaurant for about 3 hours because we ran into my pastor and his wife and chatted with them for a while. Then we went back to his place and watched a movie. It was lovely. =)

You might be wondering what I did for him for Valentines Day. Every year the Ambassador Choir here at Prairie does what they call "Singing Valentines" that you can buy for whomever you want. They have a list of songs that you can choose from and they will personally deliver it to the recipient, most of the time in the dining hall where it will be the most embarrasing. ;) That's right, I sent him one. Felt kinda bad at the time cause he looked like he wanted to melt into the floor (as you can see by the picture), but it was worth it. =) The song that I picked? Follow this link. =D

And for those unfortunate few that can't get YouTube, here're the lyrics. ;)

When You Say Nothing At All
It’s amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don’t say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There’s a truth in your eyes sayin’ you’ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you’ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old mr. webster could never define
What’s being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There’s a truth in your eyes sayin’ you’ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you’ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There’s a truth in your eyes sayin’ you’ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you’ll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
