This past Friday night Ben + I went to a special event called The Gallery of Cupcakes, put on by our friend who runs The Sassy Cupcake (on the side of about a million other awesome things that she does). We dressed up, mingled with adults, and ate cupcakes for dinner.

Afterward we decided to stop and get some real food (although I could totally live off of those PBJ cupcakes, so good!) and sit down to chat about something other than work and kids, like an actual date. It was so good to have that time, just for a few short hours to recharge and feel like a couple again.
Special thanks to our wonderful parents and siblings for babysitting so we can do things like this on occasion!
Awww I love this :) So glad you guys can get some time away from the boys to just enjoy yourselves and each other! I'm trying to "live in the moment" now and enjoy my time with Michael before it's split with kids, but I know I won't be able to fully appreciate it until after the kids come. Haha but I'm still trying! :) Love you guys!
ReplyDeleteIt's so important to have the alone time as a couple, and also as an individual.
ReplyDeleteWe try to have at least one date a month, and I try to have weekly times by myself or with a couple friends. It's become easier the bigger Liam gets.
Dating is so important in a marriage & I am so happy that you guys got to get out for such a cute & yummy looking event.
