1st Date of the Year

Since one of our New Year's resolutions is to go on a monthly date and Lane's schedule is crazy, we have to plan them out in advance. So once I had all of his shifts written on the calendar, we really only had a couple of free dates available in January and they are at the beginning of the month. Not to mention on random days. It kind of feels weird going on a date on a Tuesday night, but it all worked out. For Christmas I gave Lane a homemade gift "12 Daytz of Christmas" that I found on some blog. For each month they tell you what to do which kind of makes it nice that we don't even have to think about it. January was pretty simple: go to dinner and a movie. We had planned to go to Fuzzy's Tacos (LOVE them!), but when we dropped the kids off at my parent's house, my mom was making dinner and it smelled really good. So we ate dinner with them LOL! We decided we would go out for dessert instead. We headed to Cheddar's and while we were waiting to be seated, we decided we would also get an appetizer because it smelled so good in there. Yes, sadly we had just eaten a full meal, but still thought we needed an appetizer in addition to dessert. Um, can you tell that dieting was NOT one of my resolutions? Good thing. Anyway, we ordered the cheese fries and they were so good. Then we got the fudge cake sundae. OH. MY. GOSH! That cake was HUGE and oh so delicious. We both felt sick from eating so much when we left. Off to the movie we went. Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol was Lane's pick. It was action packed and pretty good. Well besides that fact that it was totally unbelievable.  In pretty much every scene Tom Cruise should have been knocked unconscience if not dead. For some reason that really bothered me. Guess that's why they call it Mission Impossible. Anyway, we so enjoyed our little date and look for to many more!
