just the 2 of us

trying to plan a surprise date night with the hubs.

it is kind of difficult...and it is actually more of a date afternoon/evening.

it seems like it has been forever since we have been on a date with just the 2 of us. i heard several times before we had gemma that we need to keep spending 'just us' time together. stuff happens though and schedules get crazy.

i am going to make it happen tomorrow though...

plan so far... drop gems off with aunt adrian and the kids, surprise eric at work (he only works 1/2 day on fridays), have a picnic lunch somewhere, this is the part of the date i am not too sure about yet (any suggestions are greatly appreciated; can you think of anything to do on a hot afternoon with the hubsters?), then for dinner i am planning on going out to eat for an early dinner. then we will head back to pick up gems and actually spend the night at ryan and adrian's. (we are going to a wedding saturday so... jenni and tim are staying the night there as well... we are probably going to stay up way to late and eat too much junk food, but that's what makes 'slumber parties fun, right?!)

so that's the plan...i am also planning on bringing my camera to take some pictures of just the two of us. i was trying to find some today and can't find many so i better make that a priority!!

let me know if you have any suggestions as far as something to do on a sunny afternoon!

Go to a show! Call around and see who has a local discount...I think at the mansion you can get in for $10, and their afternoon show, The Redneck Tenors, is supposed to be surprisingly good. Or maybe the guy with the animals who used to be on the showboat--he's now at Jim Stafford in the afternoon, and he is very funny. Or go to a movie! Oh, and I just heard Moonshine Beach is back open! That would be super cheap, and so fun with just the two of you...gene and I usually end up just walking thru Home Depot, but I bet you can do better than that! :-)
