Weekend Wrap-up

Saturday morning Shawn and I met up with one of his co-workers, his wife and their almost 2 year old twins at Chuck E Cheese. We got there around 10:30 and there was hardly anyone there, which was really nice. I had a great coupon that included 50 tokens and with most games being only 1 token, we were able to play lots of games. I think Shawn and I may have played as many games as Em. While there were some smaller ride ons that Em enjoyed, a lot of the games were still too big/ old for her. After about an hour of playing and winning tickets, Em picked out some prizes with her tickets and then we ate pizza for lunch. I was surprised by their pizza! It was actually pretty good. It was definitely much better than the pizza we had at Gatti Town a while back.






Saturday night Shawn and I enjoyed a rare treat...a date night. Em's teacher from school came over and babysat while we went to dinner and a movie. We went to a sushi restaurant and then picked up some cupcakes afterwards. We haven't had sushi in a while and it was soo yummy. After picking up our cupcakes we went and saw The Descendents. It was really good. It was sad, but good.

Em was super nice and let us sleep in until 8:00 Sunday morning. That never happens!!! She did wake up at 5:40, but luckily went back to sleep after I rocked her. I guess she was worn out from playing and staying up late the night before. I got another rare treat on Sunday - a morning with the girls. I met up with Courtney and Kara in Southlake to celebrate Kara's birthday. We went to brunch at the Cheesecake Factory and then saw the movie, We Bought A Zoo. We might have been the only people without kids in the theater, but I really enjoyed it. It was a cute movie.

While I was gone, Shawn and Em went grocery shopping and over to the airport to watch the planes land. I think Em was still tired from the night before though and was ready for a nap in the afternoon. She woke up shortly after I got home and me and her played outside in the pretty weather while Shawn got some stuff done around the house.

It ended up being a fun weekend. I forget sometimes how nice it is to have date night with Shawn. I'm looking forward to our next night out in just a few weeks, when we got out for Valentine's Day.
