Timmy's and great friends...

Man, did I ever have a great time last night. It has been a very long time since my husband and I had an evening away from the kids to just kick back and hang out. We went to our church's community dinner and it was soooo good. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was relaxed, fun and very social. It was so nice to be together with our church family and not be talking finance or planning etc. Then after dinner we watched the end of our Alpha DVD study which was very good and we discussed it briefly after. Then Brad, Kari, Chris and I went to Tim's for coffee and a lot of fun. Our conversations covered a wide variety of topics. Anyway I realized after I got home how healing it can be to just be with people you love, and people who love you. Brad an I both really needed to be doing something that didn't involve planning or work or even worrying about the kids. Thanks and many kudos to Chrissy and Amy for helping us achieve an evening of enjoyment. It couldn't have happened without you and thanks for all your hard work getting the stickers and crayon off our coffee table. Thanks to Stephen for being so gosh darn adorable and for playing so well with Noah. Thanks to Ceilidh for being such a good girl and thanks Noah for, well, well just thanks. I hope Brad and I don't have to go another 6 months before being able to do something like this again. Thanks Kari and Chris for great fun and laughs and for all your loving support. Thanks Brad for making the evening so special. You rock baby and you know why!!! I'm looking so forward to our "Colin James weekend" in Feb. I love you Brad. Lets do this again soon ok? Date night for mom and dad? K? Love you. M.:-)
