Rare occurrence here at the Hacienda to have an evening out childless lol but since our anniversary this year is on a Monday and the same day as Steve's neurological checkup we decided to go out Saturday night.
Believe me, Kaya did her best to make us think otherwise. "Can you just get take out?" "You know I love you guys so much" "You're going out for PIZZA?? Seriously I'm not all about pizza!" "Daddy probably would rather stay in since it's cold and wet out"
Nice try my dear but your plans failed lol and we had a wonderful time. We went to Chicago Pizza...very good and we had never been. Killer breadsticks. It was nice to just sit and talk. We talked gardens, Kaya's upcoming kindergarten roundup and schooling, weather, just talked. No interruptions, no "I'm tired of waiting on pizza"...just us time. I once told Kaya she'd faint if she was like some kids that were ushered off to a babysitter every weekend or left with her Mammaw all the time lol but I do think sometimes we need just adult time. It gives her time away from us and it gives us time to regroup on what is going on in life.
After supper we headed to JC Penny's to check out the sale and snagged some new pillows. Then followed up with a trip to Lowe's for pins for the tiller and to just browse.
Sure, may not have sounded like a whirlwind super romantic date but we've come to realize in our almost 7 yrs of marriage and almost 10 yrs together..romance is what you make it :) Just slipping my hand into his and walking down a store aisle is romantic to us, knowing he is designing the layout of a garden full of veggies when most of them gross him out lol just because me and Kaya want them..is romantic.
