First Date

My hubby and I went on our first date today....that is, first date post-pregnancy! Max and his Grandma & Grandpa M. had their first babysitting experience. Everyone ended up alive by the time we got home, so that means Grandma & Grandpa get to babysit again. :)

We went to the St. Louis Symphony. We listened to the music of John Williams....the composer of several popular movies. Some of the music we got to experience was the music from Harry Potter, Star Wars, E.T., Schindler's List, and Indiana Jones. It was nice to get out and feel like an adult today! We may even do another date in the near future!

On the way home, we drove through the "hood". There were several "hole in the wall" churches....all located right next to "hole in the wall" bars. One church actually had a "hole in the wall" that was plugged up with some rotten plywood.

We also drove by a restaurant I would love to try out some day (insert sarcasm here). The name of the restaurant was "Eggrolls to Go". I'm wondering if eggrolls are all they serve there...and if they do all sorts of eggrolls...perhaps eggrolls filled with rice, chicken, and cheese. mmmmmm....I should market those! (but I think they already exist and are called "Chimichangas")

When we got home, we were greeted by a smiley baby boy and two smiley grandparents. Successful date! Successful babysitters! Everyone is happy....next date: lunch & a movie. :)
