Okay guys, how did date night go?  I’m a little late posting here, but didn’t want to forget the accountability part of the challenge!  So, how did date night work out?  I can happily report that I successfully completed the challenge despite being sick and a blizzard.  Am I dedicated or what?!  My plan was to take my daughter to see Charlotte’s Web.  Unfortunately, we were unable to as it was not showing any longer at our local theater and it was too snowy to drive to one further away.  Instead, we did a little shopping and then had dinner at the restaurant of her choice.  What a wonderful time we had!  As I sat in the restaurant listening to her share all the current kindergarten gossip, it made me recall all the wonderful girls nights I had with my mom.  To this day, we still carve out some time while the kids are in school to have lunch and get in a little shopping. 

As we sat in the restaurant, I thought about what the future holds for my beautiful, bright and full of life daughter.  I really had a great time and so did she.  We ended with a little snuggle time on the couch while the boys were out for guys night.  So, how did your date night go?  Share your story and keep watch for this weeks challenge!

Great times all round
Sounds like we all had great times!  How simple and easy it is to do this when here is the encouragement to actually do something different that makes it a special memory instead of the same as usual. 
Peace

Having the challenges in writing with a check in afterwards sure is making me practice what I preach :)

I have a play date on Friday...
My step daughter has the day off from school on Friday, so she is coming to stay with us on Thursday night...  Francis goes to day care of Fridays with out me, and when I heard she was going to be with us on Friday I was going to keep him at home with us so we could all play... Then my husband tells me he suggested to Cam that she takes me bowling.... But she asked instead that we spend the day scrap booking. So Francis will still go to day care as scrap booking with him around poor little guy will just be impossible....    So on Friday I am looking forward to going to the dollar shop and buying up heaps of scrap book material with my step daughter, printing out tons of photos and putting them beautifully in books.. Will take photos for you all to see... :)

Well done, Jen!  Sounds like an eerily similar outing as mine :)   You know, I post these challenges so I will get off my bum and do them myself, but I'm always glad for some company :)
