I should’ve have titled this “What I ate this weekend” instead! I really only took pictures of the food. J We had a pretty
eventful weekend, which is not this norm, so that’s why you’re hearing about it
today!!
Friday//
Daniel and I took the girls to Stevie B’s for dinner. It’s a local pizza place, but they also have
arcade games for kids. I guess kind of
like Chuck E Cheese, but not as bad! The
games kept the girls attention for all of 5 minutes, so Daniel was stuck
playing the games to get rid of the tokens.
Hadleigh & Hayden stood at the prize desk waiting for Daniel to
finish, so they could pick their prize – ha!
They both picked hot pink slime…which they are only allowed to play with
in the kitchen!
Saturday//
I had brunch with three of my girlfriends at Helen’s. It was delicious and always so nice to chat
with them. I forget how much I need
these ladies and this time with them! All of us cleaned our plates – I had an
egg white omelet with feta, tomato, and spinach – topped with avocado. Sides were toast & breakfast potatoes. YUM!
While
I was gone, Daniel was brave and took all three girls to Burger King for
lunch. They ran off some energy and one
of Hayden’s school friends happened to be there, so it was an impromptu play
date! The rest of the afternoon was spent
just hanging out with the girls before taking them to my parents’ house for the
night. From there, Daniel and I started
date night!
We didn't have any reservations anywhere and originally tried to get some at Max’s on Broad. It’s a sister restaurant to Tarrant’s,
which we love. Unfortunately, they only
had 8:30pm reservations available and I thought that would be too late since we
were seeing a movie at 10pm. We ended up going to Southerly. It was tasty, but nothing amazing. We started with Cheese fritters and our
drinks. The fritters were good, but a bit on the spicy side!
Daniel had Devils Backbone brew & I had
some Pinot Noir.
Our
entrées were Rockfish {Daniel} and the zucchini risotto cakes {me}.
After
dinner we headed to the movie theater to hang out until our movie started. We saw American Sniper with friends and IT WAS SO GOOD!
Recommend you go see it for sure. It’s so respectful and really makes me think
what I do is so minuscule in comparison.
I know we all do our own part in society, but being in the military is
so honorable. Now, I want to read
military memoirs! Any good ones out there?
Sunday// Was spent hanging around the house and cuddling the girls. Daniel and I both worked on getting the gray
coat of paint on the wood planks in the bathroom.
Another bathroom to-do crossed off!
Happy
Monday!!
