I'm inviting romance into my life
one Friday Night Date at a time
and documenting each one here on my little ol' blog.
I want to remember every detail
of these splendid home spun dates.

Those look yummy!! We had a fun date night at On The Border and then seeing Crazy Stupid Love.
Yum. My date night this weekend consisted of us spending time with two grand kiddos. It doesn't get much better than that! Oh, and the menu was juice boxes, gummy bears, and gold fish!
YUMMY! As always you have outdone yourself my friend! Everything looks fabulous!
I have not seen Dangerous Liaisons but it looks great! I will have to see if Netflix has it!
We've never seen that movie. It seemed like the kind that would drive me nuts with all the intrigue. My heart can't take it!
