Date Night Smorgasbord

^^ That's not us, but we went next! The Skycoaster was such a thrill! ^^

Over the last few months Adam and I have gone on more dates than the whole year previous. To say we've loved it is an understatement. "Just us" time gives our relationship such a boost! Here's a smorgasbord of pictures from some of our favorites -- going to Lagoon, enjoying our fave Indian restaurant, Starbucks, massages, and going for a drive up the mountains east of our home to enjoy the sunset.

So lucky that Adam is mine. And I'm beyond grateful for outings like these that put butterflies in my stomach and remind me of our courting days when I fell head over heels in love with him. 

Happy 5th Anniversary Love!

On the 24th of May we celebrated out 5th wedding anniversary! 

Most definitely still surreal, and I love it. :) That man of mine had my heart long before the day we were married, but since that day we promised to give everything we had to each other, our love has only grown. It's been tested and I think we've come out stronger. Adam, you have my whole heart! 

These pictures are from our date that night, we enjoyed some shopping (that ended in a laughing fest at H&M while Adam tried on fitted shirts out in the open that were way too small to even button, and we didn't buy a thing. haha!) and then a delicious dinner of Vietnamese. We got little fortune cookies at the end of the night, and I loved what mine said,

"If you wish to see the best in others, show the best of yourself."

I can't help but apply that to our marriage. Neither one of us is perfect, but as we do our best to be our best for the other, we both become better from it and we both see each other in a better light! So grateful for a man that always looks for the good in me. I'm one lucky girl.

The Piano Guys

The day before Mother's Day (these catch-up posts may be out of order, oops;) we went on a date to cash in one of Adam's birthday presents...to see The Piano Guys! They were phenomenal. One pianist and one cellist that make a prime pair of entertainers and musicians. They take classical and modern songs and put their own fantastic spin on them, loved every note! And we ended the night by grabbing some In-N-Out on our way home to the kidlets. Love nights with my sweet Adam. :)

Here is one of my favorite pieces from the night...Alex Boye even made an appearance! You can watch more of The Piano Guys' youtube awesomeness here.

Trip to Washington: Double Date

Later Saturday night, after the triathlon (hence me looking exhausted in these pictures), my sweet parents were awesome and gave the littles some Grand-mom and Gram-pa time while Adam and I went out on a double date. :) We met up with my lady-love Britney and her handsome husband Adam who I've been friends with for ages, but my Adam has never met them, so I was beyond thrilled that we could all finally get together! It was a night filled with laughing, bottomless steak fries, milkshakes, burgers for the boys, plenty of talk about our ridiculously cute littles (wish Brooks and Ava could've played with Jude this trip!), some grown up talk (oh glorious adult conversation without interruption;), and more laughing. :) After snagging some pictures, even one with Lady Liberty herself, we said our goodbyes all too soon...goodness we need to live closer!!

Thanks for the fun night Adam and Britney! Love you both to pieces.
