Date Night

Lucky for me, not only is Gary cute but fun to hang out with. Bonus huh?! He took me on a date night a while back without me having to plan one bit of it. We both agreed we should does these more often. It's fun to be on both ends of this-either 'surprising' the other one with the plans or being surprised, and just getting that one on one time together is so refreshing.



This night we went to Avivo, and he booked the whole restuarant for us!!! Okay, not true, but we were the only ones in there. (Benefits to going out to a non-sports bar while a huge football game is on)

Since there wasn't a wait with dinner we had some time to kill, so why not go to Orange Leaf? Gary had never been, and I hadn't been in a few years-it was yummy. They really should invest in smaller cups, it's way too easy to get more than you need...but man is it good.

Afterwards, we went to see the new Hunger Games. Finally. It was so good. It's always hard coming off reading a book then watching the movie because, as always, they can't fit everything into the movies-but it was still good. I am anxious to see the last two movies and sad that that adventure will be coming to a close.

 
This scarf is MIA. This is the last time I remember wearing it. It's one of my favorites that a friend gave me and now I cannot find it anywhere. If you know it's wearabouts please tell it to come home. I miss it, and I'm sure the feelings are mutual.
 
Gary and I have taken up reading together ever since we got married. We started with some owl book series, but eventually stopped mid-way. Picked up the Percy Jackson series, and that was good-the movie for it on the other hand was bad-but the books were entertaining. And since then we've been slowly working our way through the Hunger Games.

We go in and out of 'phases' of things to do between puzzling, reading, Netflix, video games, last summer/fall we spent a good amount of time outside with the chiminea-hoping that can happen again. I got Gary the LOTR lego video game for Christmas and it may have been the best lego video game yet. Did I just say that out loud?...but for real-good stuff, so we had been playing a lot of that-but that can only get you so far entertainment wise..especially when you are the best lego players out there..ha! But now with our Hunger Games books coming to an end and dominating the LOTR game we're going to have to find some new things to do. Hopefully the weather will just decide to be nicer so we can have more options.

Well, here's to you boo. Thank you for a wonderful date nigh-for being such a fun, loving and loyal husband. You are the best ever-can't wait to grow old with you. Love you so much. xoxo
