Stephen and I had a Date Night this past Saturday. It had been awhile and we were SO looking forward to it. We had dinner at Off Vine, then made our way to Theatre Asylum for a play that combined two of my favorite things: Pulp Fiction and Shakespeare. It was HILARIOUS and Pulp Fiction fans should check it out.

Unrelated, we rented Tree of Life this weekend and….WOW. I must not be smart enough for it. Because, we only made it through 50 percent before we took that movie straight back to the Redbox. Once the dinosaurs showed up, I had enough. No amount of Brad Pitt could fix that existential mess. We also saw The Godfather for the 1st time and I give it two thumbs up. I like gangster movies and the horse head was NO joke. Also, Al Pacino was very handsome as a young man. And, I prefer Diane Keaton as Annie Hall.
I try to take photos of Lara as often as possible. Example: Stephen went to pick us up some Baskin Robbins while we stayed in the car and read some library books. I whipped out the camera and Lara complained. Oh no! Is she finally tired of our constant fawning over her? She better not be…there’s lots more where that came from.
SO, I turned the camera on myself, which is NEVER a problem, because I’m a ham. I wanted to document the matching braids Stephen made for Lara and me. I seldom put my hair up and feel most comfortable with my hair down (preferably in my face) but, after I saw him work his braiding magic on Lara, I wanted to copy.
I put my hair down later that night when I went to dinner with my BFFs. I couldn’t take it anymore!
We did our annual Christmas Gift Exchange name choosing and I can’t wait to shower my person with gifts! Yes, I DO want to tell you whose name I picked out of the box. But, I won’t. YET.
