36 days and counting...keeping fingers crossed

Good Morning!
As we wake up today the weather is gloomy and the temperature is slowly dropping. For the last several days the weather man has been predicting a snow storm that will be hitting the Des Moines area around 4pm. Last I heard they were predicting 4-6 inches of snow. It is crazy to think that two days ago it was almost 60 degrees and the sun was brightly shinning. We will not let the gloomy weather get us down today. Nick is a little excited, nervous and scared today because he has another interview. He really wants to nail this job interview today. I told him not to worry just remember to relax and breathe. All things happen for a reason and if this is meant to be you will know right away. We have nothing to loose only something to gain. I love that he has a very positive attitude and with a little loving encouragement from me. He always gets his smile back and you can see a little of his fears fade away. I get excited when he has an interview because I am then able to help him pick out his shirt and tie. I don't know much about men's dress clothing but I love how good Nick looks when he is dressed up.

On the other hand, it was nice that I was able to have a quiet and relaxing night. I came home from work and did a few things in my apartment and then Nick showed up. He knocked on my door and had a single rose in his hands. It was so cute how he said, "Babe I love you and I would like to make dinner for you tonight." I placed the rose in a vase of water on my kitchen table and then went back to working on adding the bridal shower pictures while he began to cook. The apartment began to fill with a variety of aromas. I kept wanting to get up and go over and help but Nick insisted that I relax. Finally he asked if I would like to come over and help make the twice baked mashed potatoes. I jumped up to help get the potatoes finished, while nick prepared the table with a little bit of candlelight. He plated the food which was marinated pork loin with garlic and onions on top, grapes, and homemade twice baked mashed potatoes. He was going to prepare a salad but I wasn't really that hungry. It was so sweet how he decided to spontaneously just have a candlelight dinner. He explained that it is like a little pre-valentines day since I will be Nannying. After dinner Nick and I sat down to watch Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice together.
We will be updating later tonight if there is any news regarding Nick's interview today. Thanks for keeping your fingers crossed....God Bless
