Date Night!

We kind of made a spur-of-the-moment decision and made arrangements for a date night this past Friday. Jesse has been working so much and I've been on toddler duty 24/7 almost entirely on my own and we both really needed a break.

SO, he called me from work one night and asked if I wanted to go see Dave Coulier / Joey from Full House do a comedy show at Improv - well, that's a no-brainer, right? ;) And since we are then right across from the movie theater, we decided to catch the last showing of "The Gift".

We dropped munchkin off at Granny's, and headed off. Improv was a blast! We ate fried pickles, laughed a bunch, and even got a picture with Dave!

Afterwards, we had to BOOK IT to the Theater across the street, grabbed a drink, and made it just in time for the movie. Jesse says it kind of fizzled at the end (and I do agree) but I thought it was pretty good. And the guy who played Gordo did an amazing job - so creepy! :)

Afterwards we went home to play video games, slept in and cleaned a bunch. Andrew stayed at Granny's longer than we had planned but it was so great getting him back. I missed that munchkin!!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!! TTFN <3

Hubby's Golden Birthday!

Well, my hubby had his Golden birthday today... and is currently in class, poor guy. But we made a weekend of it!

Friday we went out for dinner at one of our favorite places, Smokey Bones. It was my mother's birthday on Jan. 19th so we brought her with us and had a great time - munchkin had a blast eating out and people watching :)

Saturday we took Andrew to the children's Gasparilla Parade. It was the first time we've gone to any Gasparilla events and it was a lot of fun - definitely wanting to go the more events next year.... here's more about Gasparilla. We also went to a work dinner for Jesse and two of his co-workers that all had birthdays this month. Munchkin got lots of beads... hubby got lots of drinks ;)

Sunday was the biggest event. My mother came over to baby-sit and we took off for a hotel. We watched a movie in our room and just hung out and sipped some wine for a few hours. Then had a cab called to take us to the Theater - we had dinner upstairs with a show-themed menu (which was delicious) and then walked down to the theater just before show time. We saw Book of Mormon which was fabulous! SO funny! 

Afterward we went to Ciro's Speakeasy for a cocktail and then retreated back to the hotel. 

In the morning we sat by the river and ate breakfast before sprawling on the bed and watching cupcake wars until check-out haha!

Happy birthday, hubby - you are wonderful <3
