surprise date night

a few weeks ago i was walking during a weekly date with a friend and talking (how else are we to pass the time?). we talk about anything and everything during our hour and a half walk each week. i was telling her about how much matt has been working and that he and i were discussing hiring a babysitter just to get a little time together. she instantly replied, "you guys always have to pay for babysitters, let me watch them for you. which friday night do you want?" i almost fell over hearing such an immediate and generous offer!

i only told matt that he needed to be home by 4:30pm today. when he got home i told him to change into something comfortable. we were off to a "relaxation yoga" class and then dinner at a new-to-us sushi restaurant after getting showered up and dressed up in the clothes i had packed for us. just as matt was finishing up, my friend showed up with her two boys to babysit.

we didn't take any pictures, but the evening was wonderful. it was so restoring in every sense. love.
