valentine's date night.

So we went to Dodgy Dock last night and used our wonderful gift of a free dinner for two!  We were so ecstatic to get a night away at a restaurant we would normally never eat at on our own [except for $1 wing night, haha] since the bill ended up being over $100US!!!  It was a huge praise to the Lord and a glorious display of His infinite kindness - ALL good things come from Him! :)  The meal was wonderful, and we sat at a little table for two right on the water's edge, able to take in the steel drum/dancer/singer group that was supposed to start at 6:30pm, but finally began at 8:30pm...so we enjoyed them for about a half hour.  I'm actually glad they started late because it was more difficult to talk while they were playing [loudly].  It was really a wonderful dinner with my husband, and we loved the food.  We were able to talk about a lot of things, praise the Lord for the many kindnesses He has shown us, and get full on a very delicious meal :)  This one will go down in the books :)  Here are some pictures of the night...sorry they are a bit out of focus - I didn't want to turn on my flash because flash bleaches everything out ;)
 Some left over flowers from J's HSO Valentine's Day flower sale to benefit repainting a local elderly home.
 Our menu!!


 Mini beer stein!
 
J's starter: the fish taco :)  I started with the cream of corn soup...not as pretty, but oh-so-good!
 Guess J was in a seafood mood:  he got the Fisherman's Soup!
 Mmmm...this baked chicken was DELICIOUS!!!
 The band/dancers...slightly awkward, but talented none the less.
 My desert: Iced Black Chocolate cake with a Mini Rum Muffin - it was AMAZING!!!
 J's desert: Guava tart with Guava Ice Cream and glazed guava on the side :)  I liked mine better...
 
Happy and well fed patrons :)

What a great night :)  Much love to all.
