Our Valentine's Day continued...

David and I decided that for Valentine's Day rather than giving each other gifts we just want to go to a fancy dinner.  I LOVE going to nice restaurants!  David made the reservations so that it would be a surprise for me where we were going.

We drove up to Salt Lake and arrived at The Roof Restaurant on the top floor of the Joseph Smith Memorial Building, right next to the Salt Lake City Temple.  The food was alright, but the view was AMAZING!  We were seated right across from the temple - you can see it in the background of the picture above.  It was so gorgeous!  There was also a pianist in the restaurant playing romantic songs in the background the whole time. 

Probably the best part about the night was all the many, many delicious desserts they had.  Yes, we shared about five desserts.  We had flan, chocolate mousse, a peach crepe, chocolate cake with whipped cream, and chocolate covered strawberries!  Needless to say, I was completely stuffed by the time we were done.

Here we are with the beautiful Salt Lake City Temple behind us.  Just think only eight months ago we were there getting married!

After dinner we decided to wander around the Joseph Smith Memorial Building and have a mini photo shoot.  Here are just a few of the many pictures we took together.  That is David across the way.  The Joseph Smith Memorial Building used to be a really fancy hotel in the early 20th century.  It is beautiful inside! It has so much intricate detail on everything.

That is me sitting in the chair on the left.

A final view of what the temple looked like from our table in the restaurant.  

All in all it was a great first Valentine's Day as a married couple.  Even if we had to celebrate it a week early.  I love you David!
