Mystery Date

As soon as Jon found out that my mom was coming out, he started planning a date for the two of us. (We always get to go on a date when Mom comes. :)) This time, he wouldn't give me any details. The whole thing was to be a complete surprise. (When I told Jon that Mom wouldn't be coming, he was disappointed, but then very happy when I told him that she was again.) All I knew was that the date was on Sunday after church and that I had to pack an overnight bag. Nice! I hate surprises, but I got to the point that I really didn't want to know anything and just let it all be a surprise. I was a little bit disappointed about not getting to watch the Super Bowl, but I would NEVER turn down quality time with my husband! (Besides, I didn't really care who won the game.) I was completely baffled by the little clues I was getting. I knew that Jon's original plans had changed. Then I found out that we were going to Tulsa, but that Jon was going to have to stop back by the house later to pick something up. Things just weren't adding up! Oh well...
So, we headed out! I had my choice of places to eat. My options were PF Changs, Carabbas, or The Cheesecake Factory. Sheesh! How to choose!?
I opted for PF Changs! YUM!!!
This was Jon's fortune.
This was mine. Hmmm...
I guess that means that cheesecake is to be enjoyed "today"! So, of course, we went to The Cheesecake Factory for some dessert.
Chocolate Tuxedo Cream Cheesecake. One of our favorites!
And it was DELICIOUS!

As if the first part of the date wasn't good enough, we headed back towards Bartlesville where Jon had rented us a cabin at Osage Hills State Park. I was blown away! Jon doesn't usually plan great dates like this! (No offense to Jon, we just usually do the typical dinner, movie and shopping dates.) The cabin was great!!
Jon quickly got a fire going...
and we laid in bed...
and watched a movie and had cheese and crackers and champagne! I was completely blown away that Jon had planned all of this without me knowing! He thought of everything!
In the morning, Jon made pancakes and bacon for breakfast. I was totally impressed!
Such a beautiful place to sit and eat my breakfast with my amazing husband!
This is our cabin. I loved it! So cozy and romantic!
I had such a great time on my mystery date! Thank you so much, Jon, for planning such a fantastic getaway that we needed so much! You made me feel so special! I love you!
