"Our Family Date Night"



So this wasn't Chris and I's typical date night. We were going to just go alone, but since it was a Father's Day dinner, we decided to all go as a family :) It was a cute little thai place downtown called "Chanon Thai". Ok so I don't usually even like thai, but I have to say this place was pretty good. I would go back for sure. Chris is always begging me to go because he is a thai fanatic. So our little Devin tried some thai for the first time, and he actually really liked it. It is so funny to watch your kids try new foods. You either get a really sour face, or a smile, that's how we know Dev likes new stuff. He is such a funny little dude. I just love watching him discover everything new. Even our little Addi is really alert now, and just absorbing everything around her, then she bursts out with a huge smile. I can't get enough of seeing my babies learn all the time.
After we enjoyed our meal at this cute little place, we decided we needed a treat. So on the way home we picked up some sonic shakes ofcourse :) Dev was so tired, I think we wore him out on his first date night!
Since it was such a pretty night, we had our shakes out in the front yard on a blanket. Sometimes it is the simple moments that I truly enjoy with my little family. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else, but spending every minute I can with them. So it to chalk up our date night with babies, it actually went pretty well. I think we still may stay to just Chris and I though most of the time :)We have really enjoyed getting to go out with eachother one day a week. Chris even said he really looks forward to it, and he loves spending time with me. That really means alot to me, I truly do have a sweet husband. Well enjoy the rest of the pictures below......

"Our Weekend Visitor"


This weekend Chris and I had close friend of ours come in town!! Steph came to see her dad over Father's Day weekend, but on Friday decided to stop and pay us a visit! Steph lives out in Portland Oregon. She hadn't met Addi yet, and it had been quite a few months since she saw Devin last. Steph has been a really great friend over the past few years, and very supportive when I have needed it. Even from afar she manages to be such a great friend! Steph thank you for the visit we really enjoyed you, and little Addison loved her gift. In fact she has already worn it :) I hope to see you soon again when you are back in July! Thank you again for being such a great friend, and we miss you out here!!!
