Date Night

October 18, 2010
I'm not sure Jeff appreciated me calling his favorite lunch a "nooner." In fact, I'm pretty sure most people who saw that weren't quite sure what to think. But I was trying to be funny.

At any rate, Jeff and I had an actual date night today. Yesterday as we were trying to haul two kids out to the car after church a lady in our ward stopped us and told us she was coming over tonight to watch our kids - with dinner... a delicious beef pot pie - so we could go enjoy ourselves. I immediately thought to myself, "Do I really look THAT frazzled?" There was no use trying to talk her out of it... the heavenly beings above obviously read my blog and figured it was high time to teach me the importance of continued courtship during marriage. Since we haven't done this in a long time, we started out slow... ice cream at Baskin Robbins. Jeff printed me a "happy half birthday" coupon to use. Big splurgers we are! We weren't gone too long knowing full well my best friend was probably a bit confused to see his milk machine leave him but it was nice to get out just the two of us. Even if we ended up just arguing about what to buy Pearl for Christmas. Jeff says a bike, camera, i-pod, or 4 wheeler. I say a dollhouse, art stuff, and toys. Guess we'll be going on a few more dates before Christmas rolls around.
