This year, Bill gave me a gift card to a local spa so I can go chose whatever pampering I most want to enjoy, and a pint of yummy ice cream! I will have to give Bill his gift when it finally decides to arrive in the mail. I ordered it with plenty of time to arrive, or so you would think. Fortunately, he doesn't mind at all. Then, when it arrives, we can celebrate Valentine's Day again!
Helena and Forrest got homemade cards and some Toblerone chocolate.
Friday, Bill and I had our date night. First, we went to couples yoga at the rec center. THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN! I was amazed at how many couples were there. I am extremely sore now, though. After yoga, we went out to Rubio's for dinner. It is our favorite Mexican. It is beach Mex, so we usually order the shrimp and fish tacos. We both agree that after eating there, we both want to run off to Baja California to live!
Yesterday, Will and I spent a significant part of the day helping to paint the walls of Erik and Deanna's new house! I am very excited for them! They hope to be able to move in tomorrow. It is in Saratoga Springs, so now they will be conveniently between Kirsten's house and mine! I think they will end up being the Weierholt gathering house, now.
After feeding and watering Will (at Beto's... ugh.), I hurried home to shower and get ready to take Helena out to a one woman play at the Covey Center called 'The Belle of Amherst' about Emily Dickenson. Her English teacher offered extra credit for going to it and writing a critique. I didn't have very high expectations, but was pleasantly surprised! It was in a tiny black box theatre with seating for maybe 50 people. It was a VERY intimate setting for a play. It was amazing that the actress could carry an entire 2 hour play all by herself!
After the play, we stopped at Zuppa's for dinner. A much better choice than Beto's was for lunch! It was a weekend full of eating out, but now I am glad to be spending my day off tomorrow at home, even if I'll be doing the taxes.
