Our Weekend Part I--Zoobilee

We had a very busy weekend.

I am now super tired and my pants are pretty tight.

I'm not complaining--it was worth it!

On Saturday night, Ben and I dropped the boys off at Gigi and Grandpa J's for a sleepover. That is right, Ben and I got to go on a real honest to goodness date and it was even on a Saturday night! It's a rarity for us!

We not only got to go on a date, but thanks to our friends, we went to Zoobilee. Fancy! It was so much fun! There was so much food and drinks to be had. It was heaven!

Unfortunately, I started off just eating little bits of food so that I wouldn't get too full before making all of the rounds. We ran into a couple of friends and, before we knew it, almost all the food was gone. I was sad, but really I probably would have had a horrible stomachache had I eaten too much more food! I do wish I could have gotten some more buffalo wings. They were delicious!

Luckily for the boys, there was no shortage of alcohol. We kept ending up chatting in front of the Budweiser bar. It was convenient, but not necessarily the most ideal spot. Let's just say I'm thankful I didn't spend a fortune on my heels, because I would have been super depressed about the amount of beer that got spilled on them.

It really was a super fun night. Although we did not manage to pool together enough money to buy a baby lion, we did eat and drink our weight in delicious yummies! Plus it's always nice to spend a night out with my honey!
