Well, currently Dan and Kaiyah have very bad colds, and Zeke is starting to sound like he has one coming on. I'm doing my best not to catch it. However, yesterday we had already arranged to have some girls come and babysit the kids so that we could go on a date. Because dates are so few and far between, my husband was a trooper and didn't back out on me. We went to Chili's to eat and then had written down the name of a nearby movie theater that had a movie we were interested in seeing. The movie theater was in an "apartment complex." That should have told us something. The man at the restaurant said it was just around the corner, so we started walking there. A ways down the road we stopped and asked another man, and he said "Oh yes, just 200 meters down the road." So on we walked. Eventually we asked another man who said "Oh, just 300 meters down the road." Ha! When we discovered the apartment complex we immediately guessed the movie tickets would be more than we cared to pay for them! The fact that there was a grocery store, starbucks, spa etc. confirmed this all for us. So, we decided to just catch a random bus instead and see where we ended up. It actually took us to a familiar area of town where we went into a nice coffee house and ordered "Hot chocolate with a stick" thinking it would be hot chocolate with a cookie or something sticking out of it. Instead, they brought us a glass of luke-warm milk (they forgot about us for awhile, so I think that explains the luke-warm part) with a chunk of chocolate on the end of a plastic stick. We had to stir our stick around until the chocolate melted creating hot chocolate! It was fun just for the experience, but probably not good enough to order again! Anyways, we had a fun time, and are thankful to once again find a couple of girls that our kids love to hang out with!
