Our Saturday

On a nice warm Saturday in January (sometimes living in Dallas is awesome!), we took the boys on a 3 mile walk/run in the double stroller then played outside for a while.  How nice is it to not be cooped up in the house with 3 feet of snow and crazy cold in the middle of January . . . God, please don't let me jinx us and we get a super cold February!  Anyway, we had fun outside playing today.  The boys came up with so many fun games to play, and Lincoln and I had several (hundred) races in the backyard.  He rarely waits for "Ready Set Go" and he almost always wins!  Beau was busy scooping potting soil and "cooking" us mud pies - yuck!
We got cleaned up for dinner at a new Italian place in our neighborhood that has been getting rave reviews.  Someone wasn't willing to cooperate at all . . . big brother tried to hug it out.  Saddest face ever!  All it took was saying that we were leaving, and Beau managed to regain his composure.  I mean penne bolognese was on the line here!!!!  
We split up at the restaurant, and Daddy, Pops and E had one table, and they were sometimes accompanied by Jackson.  They anxiously awaited their orders of lasagna and fettuccini alfredo! 
The fun table included Linc, Beau, Jackson (when he wasn't visiting his E), Samantha, Mommy and Nana.  We had a blast eating and chatting.  The boys loved the dinner and my Chicken Primavera was delish!!!   
Such a fun and laid back Saturday!  Such fun dinner dates . . .we'll definitely make this a regular stop.  So exciting to have a new fancy restaurant open in our neighborhood!  We have church, brunch, grocery shopping, and naps scheduled for Sunday.  And Daddy says there are two super important football games to watch . . . we are planning our run/walk in between the games.
