oh, it is love.

last night adam and i went on our first date in months!!! its not so easy when you throw a baby into the mix to get away for even a couple of hours. it had been so long i wasnt really sure what we could do to make it more fun than your boring ol' dinner date. the writer of Today's Letters has such a fun, romantic marriage that i went to her for some ideas. she was so sweet and so helpful, and told me about a date night she and her husband had done recently and really enjoyed it. its kind of a spin on a progressive dinner, but instead of going home-to-home we did restaurants. our evening went like this:

AJ's seafood (app & drinks) - tuna dip and $3 lemon drop martinis (YUM)
Louisiana Lagniappe (dinner) - we had no clue how expensive this place was going to be, and holy cow it was expensive. for our little budget anyways! BUT since we are now "locals" and it is winter, we got a really good deal! they had dinner for 2 + BOTTLE of wine = $39.99. soo awesome!! the dinner i picked out was grouper menuire (sp?) and was originally listed for $32. adams meal was originally 23 on the menu. so without drinks we would've spent $55. so its like we saved a bunch AND got free wine.
Fresh Market (dessert) - Adam got a mini creme brulee and a mini cheesecake and i got a cupcake and a brownie. dessert is always my fave!

then we came home and put on a movie and after about 2 minutes of adam rubbing my head, i was OUT! oooops, sorry adam! date night = sleep night for me! thanks to amelias pops for keeping her overnight for us! it was a really nice break.
i meant to take my camera along for some pictures along the journey of our date night, but in my excitement (and because i was running late) i forgot the camera. grrr!!

we had a really good time. cant wait to do it again soon. :)
