date night

grace and i went on a date a few weeks ago. the kids have been earning points each day and whoever wins at the end of the week gets to go on a date with mommy or daddy - whomever they want... and they get to go wherever they want (within reason, so please no requests! cause you know on my next date i would love to come see each of you!)

in the chair, getting our toe nails painted!
grace held so still, and even got a pretty flower on each big toe nail.


the ladies were so sweet, they painted grace's finger nails, too.
we went and sat under the blue lights to let our nails set a bit.

all done!

dessert time!
we went to cheesecake factory and got ice cream sundaes!
we're such rebels!


after ice cream, we went and sat by the pond.
the lights would fade in and out, in different colors.
grace loved to watch them change.
