Date Night - SHAZZAM!

Ok, that Shazzam was ridiculous but I felt like it.

Last Friday, May 14...Brian and I had our first date night since December and it was AWESOME.

I'm not sure about all the other married couples with kids out there...but we have some date nights and they are fun. We enjoy our time out. And we are so glad we are out!

But then we have the date nights that are REALLY great and remind us of exactly what it was like before Michael. And we had one of those this past Friday!

I picked up Brian at work and we headed to Media, PA to try out a French restaurant there. Just a last minute thing Brian looked up at the end of the day so we decided, "Hey, WHY NOT?"

Off we went, in the middle of the rain...had a great dinner and got in the car.

It was only 9:00pm so we looked at each other and said, "Now what?" "I dunno." "I guess we could stick to our original plan and see Robin Hood." "But it's Late." "SO what...I think we can catch the 10:00 show"

And so off we went. Like 2 kids without a care in the world without the rest of our family waiting at home for us.

Like 2 kids BEFORE we had Michael.

So off we went to see Robin Hood and we had a fantastic time.

And THAT was why this was such an incredible date night. Because for 6 hours, we felt like carefree kids (even though I did call home because there was a SEVERE thunderstorm ripping through our house that uprooted 3 trees...but I focused on my date!)! It's not something you feel like after you have a kid...you're busy worrying!

SO Thanks to my parents for giving us a night out. We REALLY needed it badly! And we enjoyed ourselves immensely!
