Smile Valentine surprise at the car dealer
DH and I went to the dealer's yesterday to pick up my "new" 2007 Pontiac G-5 car that is replacing my 1995 Pontiac Sunfire. I was pretty excited about finally updating my 14-year old car.

While I was in the showroom signing the final paperwork, the salesman went to bring the new car around to the front of the building. I was shocked when I turned around and looked out the window to see my car with a HUGE, BEAUTIFUL valentine balloon floating from the antenna along with a big heart-shaped box of Russell Stover chocolates sitting on the dashboard. My husband had driven all the way out to the dealership (about 40 miles away) the day before to give them the balloon and the candy to have it ready to surprise me.

All the salesmen were standing around laughing about how Tom was "making them look bad".

We're 62 years old and have been married for over 30 years. I am so proud that my husband is still so romantic after all this time. He's a keeper!

Thanks, it's really pretty -- it's called "fusion orange metallic" -- it's that coppery orange color -- not a bright orange.

Yep, that looks like it.

Thanks for posting the picture

And thanks for all the good wishes -- like the "old" car, I hope I get 14 years out of the "new" car
