Anniversary Date Night

Matt and I had a fabulous 4th anniversary last Thursday, June 24th. This last year together has brought so many changes. As all new parents, Matt and I have obviously had less time for just each other. However, I think that parenting together has deepened our relationship. Someone once said watching your husband as a father makes you fall deeper in love with him; I'd have to agree. (Matt would think this is too romantic, but what can I do!?) I praise God that he's blessed our marriage so abundantly!

We had a great evening out. Omi was in town and watched Claire while we went to try out a new restaurant. We told our server that we don't get out much (which we talked about changing - once every several months is not enough!) and that we'd be there a while. He graciously told us to stay as long as we'd like. The service he provided was excellent! We started with drinks. Matt had some sort of beer (I think from a local brewery) and I had champagne with raspberry liquer. Yum! We then ordered a cheese flight and charcuterie (meat plate...lol). After some great conversation, we put in our dinner order. Matt had a sandwich with pork tenderloin, proscuitto, and some other form of pork, and I ordered Canadian walleye with capers, with sides of roasted asparagus and ridiculously delicious whipped mashed potatoes. (I don't even want to know how much butter was in them!) We stayed at the restaurant for almost two hours. It was so fun and relaxing!
