Ahh date night. When you're on a budget...you tend to have to get creative. We were going to build a fort and eat dinner in it...but I have felt TERRIBLE for a few days. My stomach was all cramped up and today I felt like I was going to faint while driving around for work. But after lying down for a few hours watching Big Love (such a fun show)..and a couple tylenol later...I was back to feeling up to a proper date night. After a yummy creamy tomato ravioli soup we decided to go for dessert at Cinnabon and an Orange Julius at the mall. It definitely felt like a high school date. Though I never really went on a proper high school date (and I dated someone for pretty much a year...what a winner), Brand confirmed that yes eating Cinnabon and drinking an Orange Julius in the mall is very high school. Then while we're sitting in the food court...Edwin McCain's I'll Be came on..clinched the high school deal. We should've gotten up and danced an arm's length apart and passed notes.
It was definitely fun and we definitely laughed a lot.
This post is dedicated to Brand. My best friend and love of my life who continues to make it a joy and a blessing to be called his wife.
You two are adorable. Orange Julius reminds me of a)my mother rewarding me during shopping trips from the mid 80s to mid 90s and b)walking around whilst experience pre-labor contractions
