Aaron's crazy birthday celebration

For our birthdays each year, we hire a babysitter and spend a night on the town. The birthday person gets to pick what we do and lets face it...there really isn't much more to do than dinner, go see a movie or go bowling. We'd rather watch movies at home and bowling doesn't always appeal so...how do we spend that precious time away from the kiddos?
By doing crazy things like we did this past Friday night for Aaron's birthday. We dropped the kids off at our friend, Lori's house, drove 2 hours into Chicago, stood waiting for 2 hours at one of our favorite restaurants...
ate for an hour and then drove 2 hours back home.
Yes. The food really is that good. We just wish there was one closer. And it was great to get quality time to talk with no one interrupting.
Love you, babe and hope you had as much fun as I did!! Happy Birthday!
