A date night out on the town

I am finding it very difficult to find the time to post here. I hope it is just a phase I'm going through. I have so much to say. The problem with waiting several days to post is I can't remember all the really cute things my kids have said.

Anyway, let's start with my date on Saturday. A couple weeks ago, Greg emailed me and said, Get a babysitter for this Saturday, we need to be downtown by 4:30, have a nice dress clean. He has never done anything like this. I was SO excited! I didn't want to know. I wanted to be surprised. Our regular babysitter couldn't babysit because she was going to the Grammy's (how exciting is that!). So I got Laura (Ricky's daughter) to babysit.

Greg had won tickets to a little play, I can't remember the name. AND to a dinner before hand at the top of a tall building to "hob knob" (how do you spell that) with some of the VIPs.

It was a lot of fun. A lot of people loved the asian meal, I didn't so much (probably because I'm allergic to Iodine and couldn't eat half of the meal.) But I had such a great time! Here are some pictures from the deck at the top of the building.

Our state capital building.

After the dinner we walked across the street to TPAC. I enjoyed the play. I was confused a bit by it, but Greg filled me in on the way home. It was just a very pleasant evening. And I hope he surprises me again like that! {HINT}

Then when we got home the house was not in shambles. Laura had the kids clean up their mess and the house was neat. I love her!!!
