date night

thanks to a dear friend, nanny goat, eric and i were able to get away for the evening and enjoy a quiet meal for two at olive garden.
it was so great to get away from the everyday busyness and have fun together.


and we did have fun. we are working on our 'take-the-picture-ourselves' skill. it is harder than it looks...you have to get just the right angle.

the people at the table beside us probably thought that we were crazy...we kept taking picture after picture...half the pictures eric looked a little plastered...no he wasn't really, he just happened to look like he was; the other half i looked like my face was twice it's normal size..no i wasn't having an allergic reaction, i just didn't know how to look at the camera. and these three...well, they were the best ones from the night.

i am actually surprised that eric let me take this many pictures...being a waiter he is very conscience of other waiters/waitresses when we go out to eat. which i think is very thoughtful...in this case we were finished eating and eric, being the thoughtful person that he is wanted to leave so that our waitress could have more people seated to make a little more money... i finally convinced eric to let me take a few more pictures and then leave. thanks babe, you will thank me some day.


after our quiet dinner for two, we thought it would be fun to liven things up a bit and take to the tourist scene...what better way to do that than to go to a show... one advantage to living in town is that shows are frequently having area appreciation...that was the case with this particular show...the hughes brothers. we invited a, r, and k to go with us. it was a blast...this particular show showcased the 5 hughes brothers and their families...each one had huge families...one of the brothers had 11 kids and every single one was in the show. a and i had to pose for a picture and show off m's super cute outfit...hopefully we can have a photo shoot sometime with her in it so you can see it even better.



i love date nights...they are so fun...next time we might have to get more creative.
speaking of creativity...it is my turn to plan our anniversary this year...i am trying to come up with something creative to do...any suggestion?
