Although hubby already took the boys & I out to celebrate Valentine’s Day as well as our belated Anniversary we felt we needed to go out on a date night just for the two of us. The home renovation also nudged us to get out the house instead of cooking on the George Foreman grill and dine with paper plates/cups and plastic utensils. So, late last week G & I did just that. We dropped the boys off at my parents house and went to an Argentinian restaurant followed by a movie. Getting all dolled up in our chaotic under renovation home was a challenge so all I did was put on my every day denim, a light sweater and some red lipstick to finish the look. I didn’t even fix my hair (I still can’t find my hair blowdryer!) but whatever.
Anyhow, the night started out romantic and uplifting but after watching this movie I felt like I was in a war and almost died. It was that intense and I have to say it was really really well made. After watching that I felt more grounded about life. I am so thankful and appreciative of our soldiers risking their lives so that we can go to the mall, dine at restaurants and watch movies without worrying about our safety. Unfortunately, the war is still going on at certain parts of the world. I pray for all these innocent people and hope we all can live in peace one day.
