Flowers on a rough day...

Ben was so sweet and brought flowers and a card home from work after a really emotionally rough day...

...isn't he the sweetest?! :)

DaTe NiGhTs-Olive Garden and Iron Man 2

Right before Iron Man was about to start...:)

The cool theater by our place! :) It was really a fun environment! :)

So nice to be out together...it has been a little while...

Loving being together! :)

Like little kids we decided we just had to stop for some McDonald's before the show. :)

The cool clouds from the storm we had all day...

YAY!!! Ready to go see Iron Man 2 @ the I-MAX theater!!!

The shelf I painted. :)

It really brought our room to life!

Just could not stop with the bedroom-so we made signs with our last names and the year we were "established"/ married on them. :) I have wanted one of these forever and now I get one with my own personal touch and handwriting!

RaTs in the TUB! :)

After Zoey's traumatizing experience with being out in water for the first time, Ben had the bright idea to let Chloey play in a little bit on her own in the tub first...worked out well she did not even freak when Ben put her in the water to wash her-sorry mommy did think of it first Zoey...

Chloey-she did pretty well, didn't seem to even bug her at all! :) Ben is brillant! There is hope for our kids!

Cute Chloey!

Rub a dub dub! :)
