date night...

I have tried to make a concerted effort these past several weeks to actually go on a date with my hubby. This is a major feat considering our schedule. It seems that when he is off, I am working, I am off, he is working... So we need to actually plan this WAY in advance! My goal is to schedule one date night a month. We even found the BEST babysitter when we are staying at Grandma's, Miss Chelsea. She & I go WAY back! In fact I hold the distinct honor of being the only adult invited to her birthday parties! Yes, I was there at the roller rink skating away. What can I say I have always been one of the kids! Now that I am BIG, haha, and have kids of my own it seems only fitting to have her come over to babysit the tribe. This babysitting thing is new to us because we never get to go on "dates". But I know how important it is for our marriage to stay strong, for us to get "alone" time. The very first night she babysat we decided to have dinner & a movie. We tried out Bonefish Grill. I know, that place has been around forever & why is it that we are just now trying it out!? Well, like I said we don't get out much! Let me tell you we had a great time! They have some YUMMY food! I was SO excited that I got to "date" my husband, WOO HOO! We spent so much time at the restaurant chatting up our bar side neighbors that we missed being able to catch a movie! )= The only good part was that I knew we would not have to wait long for our next...
