Thanks to my wonderful mother-in-law, Loverboy and I were able to enjoy a nice date tonight! Date nights are pretty rare because Shaun works nights and rarely gets one off. (Plus we always feel bad leaving the kids with anyone else, because they can be quite a handful.) But a random weeknight off + awesome mother-in-law (Have I mentioned we love her?) = much needed date night. It was so nice to be able to just spend a little time together without our crazy adorable kids.
We went for a hike at a local state park, ate heart shaped jelly beans, did a little thrifting, and had dinner at Steak and Shake. (Chocolate banana milkshake? Yes please!) I also tried cottage cheese for the first time, which is kind of a big deal! (I was right by the way, that texture is just too weird!! Don’t think I’ll be eating more any time soon.) I brought my nice camera to the park so I could take some pictures, but I forgot my memory card in the computer… so I had to settle with cruddy cell phone pictures. Oh well, that just means we’ll have to go back! Next time we’ll bring the kids :)

Sounds like a great time…love the heart jelly beans.
It was a nice evening, and those jelly beans are so yummy! Amazingly we still have some.
