Kristin and I have been “through the fire” the past few weeks. We’ve struggled more with life than we ever have and we both feel drained and beat up. We’ve needed to be with each other more than ever and spent the least amount of time together. We’ve been busy and going separate directions and tonight we are hanging out. No Target date tonight. A real live, quiet dinner with a waiter and drinks and everything.

It’s not like we are going to Paris or anything but for us it’s something we need tonight. I think we are just going to head to the city, find a Cheesecake Factory and then walk around. Find some cool shops to look at, and connect as a married couple. Refresh and maybe even hold hands. And I am excited about it. I’m excited about connecting with my wife again, and forgetting about the stresses of life for a few hours.

What’s the best date you’ve had?
