Surprise Date Night

It was the first time my husband Jeff was supposed to plan Date Night.
I reminded him a few times but eventually gave up on bugging him & thought he would forget & we would end up watching the Spartan Bball Game for sure & then didn't think there was much planned after that.

Well he got me!
Our date night was Saturday night- so we had to get in our Spartan Gear to watch MSU lose in the Final 4 by 2pts only to Butler!!! What a loss!!!!

But in the last quarter of the game a knock at the door scared me to death! Whenever we know someone is coming we open the garage for them & turn on the lights, but at 8:00 at night I was shocked- especially because we live in the booneys!

It was our friend Emily who was in town for the weekend & Jeff had been arranging for her to come over & surprise me the whole time! It was a great surprise since she lives in Chicago & we dont get to see her very much.

She brought us lots of treats (jeff asked her to bring some of my favorite Chicago pizza home!) & we had a fantastic time just catching up until 1am over some hennessy!!! Our normal drink with Emily.....& she brought a Special Hennessy Bottle for us....



I had to go to call it a night at 1am though, I could have stayed up all night talking to her (like we normally do) but I knew that a rambunctious 1 year old awaited me at 6:30am!
Thanks babe for a great 1st Date! It was a good surprise!

  1. What a great surprise! I love when we can catch up with friends who live at the other end of the country. And we all talk for hours too. Well done Jeff on the secret planning too!

  2. Ahhh - what a lovely husband. What a posh drink to have with friends - mine are more of the cheap white wine kind!

    Hope you managed a lie in (couldn't you say that the date organiser gets to have special one-to-one time in the mornings?)xo

  3. Great surprise! On the way home the other day (during the turnie) someone on our road had a HUGE blow up Spartan in their front yard. We live in UM country so it's great to see a little green and white peak out :D
