Weekend Recap:
This past weekend was a great time. I spent Friday night with some lovely ladies from our parent group at school while the hubby and kiddo spent some good one-on-one time together checking out Jupiter at an observatory in Utrecht.

Saturday night hubby and I reinstated date night. We'd sort of gotten away from our formal date nights as the kiddo has gotten older we just sort of go out whenever we want. However, we were doing more day time stuff and weren't really getting to dress up the way we like and we've been missing out on the dancing we used to do.
So, here we were ready for date night:
We didn't have a plan just played it by ear and wound up at a great wine bar for our first course called Bubbles and Wines.
They have all sorts of wines of all sorts of prices. You can even get a flight of different types of wines to try. They had all sorts of appetizers and we got a cheese fondue type thing, was quite delicious!
We then wound up over at CAU, which the last time we were there was one year ago when we went to Cambridge, which is what started us on this entire crazy journey! So, it was a fitting meal. The place is amazing. They have great quality food at a decent price, really something for everyone on the menu. The fun thing about this place is it is 3 stories high so if you are on the 3rd floor you have a fun view of some great Amsterdam architecture.

Late seating, but should be such a fun and cool experience, I can't wait for such a unique date! What surprised me is our kiddo is especially happy, after 16 Valentine's Days together we usually skip out because of crowds but the kiddo said we were being party poopers haha
Sunday: Tacos with salad
That is it for me this week....do you do anything special for Valentine's Day? If so, what?
Look at you guys all dressed up!! And I'm impressed that you already have Valentine's reservations... we're hoping our babysitter can come one of the weekend nights. We need to get on that!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Laura! I had to get on it because it is a special event for exploring a certain area of town and I was afraid it would be booked up before we could get in, and I was late to the party! haha Good luck getting your sitter, I know how hard that can be. Now that my kiddo is of sitting age she can get quite busy on the weekends! haha
