10th Anniversary~ Date Night!

 

We had a really great time on our Anniversary night out!! We had some time to kill before our dinner reservation, which was at 845pm, so we went this Irish Pub that had live music. I can't say we went to a Pub without feeling like I need to explain a little bit first. In the town we spent our date night in there is no smoking the restaurants and bars anymore. So I really liked how we were able to go in and sit down and enjoy some music while not feeling like we were drowned in smoke and a typical bar scenario. It really felt like we were just hanging out in a restaurant. It happen to come up that we were out celebrating our wedding anniversary and the guy singing dedicated a song in our honor. We got up from our table and enjoyed a slow dance together....Our waitress took our picture to document the moment! It was very sweet...I enjoyed it very much!!
Then we headed off to our dinner reservation....there was also live music (a band) at our restaurant, but that started at 930p. Justin had heard lots of good things about our restaurant and was hoping it would be a good pick. I, on the other hand, had never heard anything about this place. Let me just say Justin had to tell me I was not aloud to be frugal on this date night. Just relax and have fun and don't look at the prices...smile...which is very hard to do...but I pulled it off.
I think the funniest thing that happened on our night was Justin asked the waitress to guess what anniversary we were celebrating........she guess it was our "16th wedding anniversary"...I pretty much about fell out of my chair!!!! Which by her calulations she thought we were about 36 yrs. old......which might I say is not old...but when someone guess you are 6 years older than you really are...I don't call that a compliment......It did give Justin and I something to laugh about the rest of the night! Our waitress offered us a FREE dessert....I think it was partly a peace offering...partly because it was our anniversary....whatever the reason it was the best dessert I have EVER ate in my life! Really the whole night was full of foods that were just the most amazing tasting I had ever had!! Here is a shot of the desserts we had to choose from.....We picked the pumpkin cheesecake...Mmmmm!

We had such a fun night!! A special THANK YOU to my sister-in-law and brother-in-law who so willingly took on our four kiddos so we could stay out as late as we wanted!! What a fun anniversary night we enjoyed and I look forward to celebrating at least 50 more with my great husband!! Thanks to all of you who left us sweet messages! I really appreciated all the nice things you had to say!
