Dating Stories II

date night 2

So Zach and I have been trying oh so hard to do dates once a week.  We are succeeding but I'm having a terrible time taking pictures of the occasion.  But I remembered this week!!!  After a horrendously long day at work I was almost not in the mood to go out at all, but a friend of mine was playing a night gig at a local coffee shop, so we had to go!!!  It was a magical night full of singing, a little dancing and a yummy pot of Earl Grey tea.

We also took some photos of our outfits just because:)  Zach isn't as comfortable around the camera as I am, but he was a good sport.  I like his fashion sense.  It's changed drastically since I first fell in love with him.  In those days his hair was blue and he'd wear this awesome Super Chunk t-shirt with some baggy brown corduroys.  Anyways, off topic, but whatevs.

Dating Stories

Remember that new little feature I wanted to do on my blog?  I mentioned it weeks ago I think.  Anyways, this is it.  Admittedly, I probably put about 2-3 hours into my blogging a day!!  Add that to the 9 hours I'm away from home every day at work, it adds a lot of time spent not really communicating with my hubby.  It  sounds weird, but Zach and I enjoy the silence.  We eat dinner together, take walks together and have our little rituals every night where we converse and have fun, but we also like to enjoy alone time too.  Most of that time is spent on the internet.

So where is this all leading?  Well, Zach and I decided we'd spend one to two nights a week as date nights!!  Or date days:) Here is our latest pictorial of our date. 

First we stopped at one of our favorite cafes for breakfast.  We love this place!!!  They have board games, books, antique booths, in house roasted coffee, ohmygod!!! It's our fave place ever for Saturday morning hangouts.

Next we shot on over to our neighbhorhood Stockley Garden Art Festival.  So many wonderful people and artwork.  We also have a Rothko exhibit going on, hence the bits of red in the photos.

And lastly, it was time for lunch!!  Ten Top is a little niche in our neighbhorhood that offers amazing soups and sandwiches and fancy sodas.  We like to treat ourselves to Ten Top about once a month.  It's not expensive either, we just like to save Ten Top for fun occasions.
