Friday Favorites

Friday Night Dates is something that we started back when I was homeschooling our three boys. There was a time when the load of homeschooling, being a mom, and being a wife was just too much for me to handle. So, when my husband suggested we hire a babysitter and schedule a date for every Friday night, I was so excited. There were times that when I was having a particularly bad day the thought of the "Friday Night Date" was what kept me going. Now that our children are older we don't go out as much, but we have time to ourselves in our own home. We didn't always go out to eat either. Sometimes just riding around the city and talking were enough for me to get recharged for the next week. Tonight - we're going out. We are going out with friends who are similar to us in ways and so different in other ways. They are the kind of friends that we could be around for a long time and still not run out of things to talk about. I'm so looking forward to it. I love our Friday Night Dates!
