Valentines Day this year was a lot of fun. Landon and I woke up and made biscuits and gravy. We had his brother and sister-in-law, Mike and Amanda and their girl Gracie came over as well as Landons friend Jared. They all came over and we had such a fun time eating breakfast and talking. Later we played the game Yahtzee. That morning Landon had to run to the store to buy a few food items, while he was there he bought me Flowers, oh how sweet :) what he didn't realize is that we didn't have a vase and so we had to use the blender for our vase. The flowers are even prettier. Thanks Landon. Oh and Landon blew up some balloons we had and was making laugh really hard when he was acting like an older lady.
Later on that day Landon and I had to work, which was fine, I didn't mind it. We were making money and we where together. For dinner Jared and Ellie cooked chicken and brought it to us during out break, it was nice of them.
For those of you who where not at my Wedding Luncheon, my brother-in-law Kevin read the poem that Landon wrote to me while he was on his mission. Well, I didn't think about posting this until I saw Kevin posted the poem he wrote for Ruby. I don't like competition, I just think they are both really good poems.
So here is the poem Landon wrote for me 2 years ago for Valentines Day.
Julie's Poem
I needed a job, so I looked around.
I had my C.N.A, but no job could be found.
Finally in the paper, I saw an add.
"I'll apply there, it's not too bad"
One of a million applications was mine,
but by some miracle I made it on time.
My greedy thoughts began to show,
"I'll wipe some butts and make some dough."
But there was something different here, what could it be?
The residents, the food, or because it's so friendly?
I discovered the feeling and began to pursue.
It wasn't the food, that feeling was you!
A twelve - to - one ration with girls is high;
but of them all, only one caught my eye.
Julie's amazing, smart, funny, and grand!
I devised a plan just to hold your hand.
As our friendship grew, and now I look back;
It's like I found a needle in a hay-stack.
Four wheeling, the temple, and staying up late,
working was like getting payed to date!
We then stepped it up and began to give hugs,
unless we had something all over our scrubs.
Kisses came next, and oh what a thrill!
Each time I recall them, my spine gets a CHILL!
But finally the time came for us to depart; :(
but don't worry baby, you've still got my heart. :)
Half way across the world to serve,
the Lord that I love, and help his children return.
I feel near to you, though so far away;
with each letter of Love, and a prayer every day.
Julie I love You, and want you to know;
though this poem is real long, I hope it will show...
That you are my Princess and you're priceless to me.
Have a reat Valentines Day, I love you SWEETIE!
Love always and Forever, Landon Deru
