Ahhh, How is it Monday already?! I know this is a common question, but seriously! After an extremely hectic week at work {I'm planning for 3 trade shows - 2 in Europe and 1 in Vegas}, It was so nice to know that we would have a low-key weekend. We didn't have any projects going on around the house, which was a nice change from the previous weekends.
Friday I met my bestie {Paige} for lunch.. I just love spur-of-moment lunch dates! We hadn't been able to get together for my birthday, so we used this as our opportunity. She surprised me with this necklace! I am in love! Such a sweet and thoughtful gift.. definitely a new jewelry staple!
Friday night I met Sarah for a little mani/pedi.. It was SO relaxing! Perfect start to the weekend. We were able to catch up on our week of craziness and talk about our weekend plans. Love her!
When I got home from being pampered, Tyler and I put down our new rug, which had come in on Thursday! It was the perfect addition to our living room and it brightens it up a lot! We moved our ottoman up to the Media Room and are currently looking for a new coffee table.
Saturday was full of errands, so of course we made a pit-stop at Starbucks!
After our errands and a nap, we started prepping for dinner.. Tyler planned out the menu! Perfect date night in!!
And here's the entire meal: Filet Mignon, Lobster, Orzo and Asparagus... Ah-mazing!
This weekend we decided that we were going to try a new restaurant (one we haven't been to) each weekend. So, in keeping with this new rule, Sunday we tried a new place {Scotty P's} and they had this on their menu.. Cardiac Fries, AKA deliciousness!! Perfect way to start off our day-date!
After lunch we headed to the movies to see Zero Dark Thirty.. We've been wanting to go see this movie since it hit theaters, but life gets in the way sometimes!
Well, that was our weekend in a nutshell! Perfection, if you ask me. What were y'all up to this weekend? Did you have a date night in or a day date? Ever had any Cardiac Fries?
Happy Monday!

How was the movie?! We've been wanting to see that too! We always say we're going to go to a movie and then something comes up... we haven't been in forever! Happy Monday! :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteHey Girl! The movie was good, but really long and slow in some parts, but very interesting!
DeleteThat was the first movie we'd been to in a LONG time!
