Date Night!

My sister in-law and I do a monthly babysitting swap, so we can got out with our husbands and not have to pay for a babysitter. Last night was our night so we were trying to think of something to do...you know, the regular...dinner, a movie...etc. Ryan called me in the morning wondering if we wanted to go to this Stars fundraiser dinner thing that his boss bought a table to. We decided why not, its something new and different. My next question was "what the heck do I wear to something like this?" Of course my husband didn't know. The tickets are pretty pricey and the food is supposed to be a "5 star meal". I even decided to curl my hair all nice. Well, being the procrastinator that I am, I didn't start getting dressed until like 15 minutes before we had to leave, I mean, how hard can it be to find something to wear. It took me a half an hour to finally decide on an outfit, which by the way, the cardigan was still damp because I put it in the dryer way too late. By the time we got in the van my hair was completely flat. Seriously, I don't know why I bother. My hair just doesn't hold curl very well. It looked fantastic for 10 minutes anyway. The dinner was amazing! It was a buffet with so many delicious things to eat. They had a bunch of draws and a silent auction, but the best part of the night was the live band. It was so much fun to get out on the dance floor and boogie! I love, love to dance and don't get much opportunity to. Not like I can crash an Institute dance! I even got Ryan on the dance floor to bust a move, which if you know Ryan, is a huge deal. We even got to jive! It was way too much fun. I could have danced all night! Definitely the best date night we've had in awhile! Hopefully we'll be able to go again next year.


This morning I woke up to a little 2 year old voice singing "twinkle, twinkle little star" is there anything better then that!
