Trying to enjoy my last few days off of work!

Thursday the boys and I went to the mall mainly for something to do. We spent a long time in Barnes and Noble as always, then they played games, got a cookie, and then we went out to lunch at Blimpies (yes they had cookies before lunch- what can I say it was a special treat I guess)! We headed to Target and then finally home. I had my small group and my mom invited us over for dinner so Jeff took the boys over there for a great meal. Meanwhile, I went to My Daddy's Cheesecake to met with the girls for our small group meeting. The food was delicious, I had never ate there before. Our meeting was great as always, too. Both boys ended up staying the night with my mom. They had tons of fun! I was surprised Preston stayed; yet, Austin told him he couldn't stay the night and I think that just made him want to stay more. Friday I picked the boys up and we just played at the house, Parker came over for a short while and played. Friday night Austin was off again to stay the night with Parker for his birthday party. So, Jeff's parents watched Preston so we could go out for some much needed quality time together. We went to eat at Ruby Tuesday's and then we went to Target (yes, Target again- I love that place and we were actually looking for a few more things on sale) and Wal-Mart to look for a dartboard. We ended up just buying a new Christian CD there. OK -so that may not sound like a dream date; however, we really enjoyed each others company and just being together! We're really going to try to make it a point to go on a date at least once a month. I know we've been saying that since we had the boys; yet, hopefully this time we will make time especially since the boys are bigger now. I shouldn't feel so guilty leaving them for a few hours.
