Ben turned 35 on Saturday.
We shipped the boys off to Grandma's and had a day to ourselves!
Ben played golf and I tagged along.
We were there for 5 hours. Five hours of no distractions, no kids, no cleaning. Just being together.
It was quite perfect.
It also reaffirmed that I don't really want to learn how to play golf. I would much rather spend my time lounging in the cart than getting sweaty and frustrated!
Plus, I have no desire to get involved in such a time consuming hobby! I'll just tag along when I can!
The American Pie movies hold a special place in our hearts.....they are very romantic you know! (I actually think this one may have been the raunchiest one yet!)
They've kind of followed us thorough our years together.
Our last date before having Luke was to see American Wedding. That was such a good day!
When we got home it was late. Ben was hoping the boys would be asleep. I knew better!
They were wound up and wanted desperately to stay up to see the Super Moon--the moon , but bigger and brighter!
We had about 45 more minutes until it was at it's peak, so we grabbed some blankets and laid out in the front yard. Ben pointed out planets and constellations while we waited.
It was a perfect way to end the day. The boys even went right to bed when we came back in!
It's not very often that Ben and I get real dates, and when we do we usually end up not really knowing what to do with ourselves--we're pathetic and boring, I know! Golfing may have to be our new "go to" date! It was so much fun!
Saturday really couldn't have been better.
It's pretty high up on my list of all time favorite days with my very favorite boy!
