Our Big Date

So Jesse had been planning this big surprise date for us. I was told to get all dressed up, I was even able to get a new dress for it. Before we got all ready we arranged to put the kids in daycare while we went out and dropped them off.

He had a stretch limo pick us up (and drop us back off).










He took us to a Five stare restaurant. I was allowed to order anything I wanted. And because he is in the service, our waiter gave us a free bottle of wine on him.



For desert, they brought 2 champagne glasses and a slice of cake. On the plate written in chocolate was this....


And he presented me with a new wedding ring (yes, he got down on one knee and re asked me to marry him).



These are just a few shots of us on the way back home after our date.

a limo, a man in uniform and a woman all dressed to the nines---sounds like No Way OUt with Kevin Costner! Hope you had as much fun as I did watching that movie.

Be happy and safe in your years to come.

Very pretty ring, Diana! And some nice memories to look back on during these very alone months ahead of you both ...

Love the dress, you look beautiful and Jesse so very handsome in his
uniform. Looks like your date was
every bit as special as Jesse wanted.
That stretch limo is wild, huge. The
desert plate with "will you" is so
romantic and the ring is beautiful.
So very glad you had a wonderful
time on Jesse's r & r, yall. Thanks
for sharing it all with us, honey.
Jesse now has nine months in Iraq and
so now you are all counting down with 8 months left. Love you.
