The Simple Things

I'm blogging today to publicly thank my sister-in-law Missy, also know as Melissa...weird! :), for being one of the most thoughtful people I know. A week or so ago Missy called us up and asked if they could watch Anna on the 13th so we could go out on a early Valentine's Day date. Missy and her husband Briant would be down for the weekend and they thought it would be nice to give us a night out. How thoughtful is that?
Thanks to Missy and Briant for being our Baby Monitor Watchers (that is what we call anyone who babysits because Anna goes to bed at 7pm and really anyone that watches her just watches the baby monitor) we had a fun evening. We haven't gone on a non temple date since Anna has been born.

We went to Rumbi Grill for dinner. Luckily they were out of pork so Devin got to have this great shrimp chicken dinner for 25% off. We told him the morning shift guys could forget to cook extra pork every day.
We walked around the mall for a bit. We didn't get very far. We laughed at how expensive kid's clothes are at Nordstrom and Baby Gab. I am way too big of a tight wad to spend $$$$$ big bucks on clothes that my kid will grow out of in 3 months. On the other hand we couldn't pass up drooling over the clothes at Eddie Bauer, our favorite store. They were having a 50% off all clearance items. Devin got a new pair of gloves for $6. Coming from Eddie Bauer that is quite the deal.

The highlight of the evening was going to the dollar movie, which is actually $1.75 We looked at all the movies out and we really couldn't find anything that we just had to see. We decided to go see Bolt. It was really cute. Very quotable.
Overall we had a great time. Thanks Missy and Briant for being so thoughtful. We hope to be able to return the favor someday soon.
And these are just stinking cute pictures that Devin took of Anna today. Isn't she BEAUTIFUL!!!
