Date Night

Friday night, the kids went to Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Bob's house OVERNIGHT! Chris set this up so we could get some much needed time alone. The kids were so excited that they walked right out the door when Grandma arrived to pick them up. It was too funny.

On Friday, Chris and I went out for a quiet dinner, went to the book store, then ran into the pet store. The pet store? Yes, we are considering buying a little puppy, so we wanted to get a few things just in case. Who knew buying for a puppy was so much like buying for a newborn?

After that, we came home took a bike ride around the lake (see picture below) and watched movies until midnight. I can't recall the last time we did that.

On Saturday, we were both shocked to wake up and see that it was nearly 9:30! I can not recall the last time that happened either. We set out for another day of adventures. We loaded up our bikes and went to Walnut creek and rode around. It was so peaceful. We saw turtles, geese, fish, toads and more. It was fun. We got a quick TCBY trip before picking up the kids at 1.

We love our kids, don't get me wrong. But date nights, especially overnight, are so important we find. Thank you, Topher, for making this one so much fun. We are both so relaxed now going into Chris' week off of work! Yeah!
