Priceless

• Dinner at the flying pig 64 dollars
• Babysitter 40 dollars
• An overdue date with my husband: Priceless

Bill and I finally had a date. We were trying to remember the last time we went on the date, just the two of us and I believe it was in the year of 2008! I could be mistaken but I do not believe we had a date in 2009. Do not get me wrong we have had lots of great times and we have gone out to eat but not without one or both of the kids. Prior to having kids we always talked about how we would have date night at least twice per month, well we have failed miserably. The reality is that Bill works long hours and is away most evenings and with both of us working during the week we do not want to be away from the kids on the weekend. Yet we recognize how important it is to stay connected as a couple and to have time alone. It was great to talk for a few hours uninterrupted and also to eat hot food! This was the first time we have left Griffin Sawyer with a babysitter but since we use one of the girls from the daycare he did great. We promise not to wait as long before we go on the next date! And yes we did eat at a bar/restaurant called the Flying Pig!
