Birthday Night On The Town

Yesterday was Elizabeth's birthday! So in celebration, I took her downtown to the Chart House Restaurant to have dinner and soak in the view overlooking Cincinnati and the Ohio River. We had a wonderful time enjoying first class service and outstanding food. I know some of you are wondering, so to satisfy your curiosity, I wore my suit, a white dress shirt and blue tie, and Elizabeth looked stunning in a black formal dress. We started off our dinner experience with the best Clam Chowder I've ever salivated over; fresh, creamy, rich, with plenty of clam meat. For dinner, Elizabeth was engrossed by the Shrimp Fresca she order (Parmesan crusted jumbo shrimp with angel hair pomodoro, topped with jumbo lump crab), and I was rewarded by ordering the Cajun Yellowfin Ahi (Cajun spiced and grilled Yellowfin Ahi, ginger soy butter, wasabi cream, spinach & bok choy). We topped off the evening by watching the sun go down over the city and Ohio River while being wowed by a cup of coffee and the Hot Chocolate Lava Cake (Godiva Chocolate Liqueur, molten center, Dreyer’s® vanilla ice cream, served with warm
chocolate sauce and Heath Bar Crunch). All in all, it was the best dinning experience the two of us have had in a very long time (if ever); not to mention the very nice complimentary valet parking.

Afterwards, we went for a walk along the river and enjoyed a warm summer evening hand in hand as a thunder storm blew in over the north side of Cincinnati. The pictures you see above were taken by Elizabeth on her new Nikon D60, her birthday present from me this year. She is very excited about it and I'm sure all of you will start benefiting by it as she post more fabulous picture in the future.

In closing, I love you Elizabeth and I looking forward to seeing what God is going to do in your life during this next year and in the many, many wonderful years that lie in store for us together.

Your Loving Husband,

John
