valentines day date......

so for the first time in what has felt like forever, steve and i went out to eat and to a movie by ourselves........to be honest, i'm not sure we've done a meal and a movie solo since casey was born.......i know we've taken them to movies when they were babies, and left them with the grandparents once in a while to see one, but never a meal AND a movie.......

we were hoping to get to cheesecake factory (since i was really craving their dutch apple streudel cheesecake) but with a 45 min wait (at lunchtime!!) we wouldn't have made the movie.......so we ended up at tgi fridays for an adequate but still enjoyable lunch......then off to see avatar.......it didn't look interesting at all to me, but steve wanted to see it and i had heard really great things about it from friends so we took a gamble......it was good i have to say.......it was all 3D the whole way through and the imagery was really incredible.......

we talked on the way home about the future of movies in 3D - are we all going to need to buy 3D glasses for movies?.......hopefully they'll come in more stylish designs than the ones they handed out with the admission price.......maybe they'll have a contact lens that has 3D capability in it?.......by the time our kids read this, they'll be laughing at how terribly archaic this all must sound.......

it was great to have some time with just my hubby, but we were both really excited to get back to the little monsters afterwards!......
