I am sure that you can imagine how excited I was to know that I would actually be able to go on a date with my husband on a Friday night!
Our plan was to go to dinner at Genghis Grill on Friday, September 17, 2010. Little did we know that my sister would be in labor that same day! However, because we do not live close to my family we decided to go out anyway.
Dinner was so good! I did not exactly make mine Weight Watchers friendly, because I failed to research the nutritional facts before I went. I ate the entire bowl and it was delicious. It was so nice to just have an evening away with my husband. Here are some pictures from our evening.

Awwwww ... I love these pictures! I'm so glad you were able to have a date night. :)
Thanks Stephanie! It was fun to have my husband all to myself!
Date nights are the best! Hubby and I have one on the calendar for Saturday night and I'm so looking forward to it!!
Cori - They are the best! I hope you have a great time on your date night!!
I love date nights!! Thanks for visiting my blog! I will follow you and I think we'll become fast friends! I love the WW suggestions!
Michelle - You're welcome! I am excited to have a new blog friend.
You have to treat yourself once in a while!
Losing Brownies - Yes you do!
How awesome is that!?!?! Hubby and I have just started a participating in a christain marriage group with another couple and part of the requirement is a "date night" - we'd love to do it but we're having childcare issues ;-) Scheduled, specific time alone with your husband is an excellent habit to get into before the children arrive and one to maintain when they get here.......wish we'd done that!
Bonhomie Jewelry - I hope that you can solve the childcare issue and enjoy your own date night. Maybe you could offer to babysit for a couple in your group and they can babysit for you when it's your date night. Just a thought!
We just recently tried the Genghis Grill too! It's so nice to get a date in. We went with our 4 kids...a liiiiittle different experience! I'm following you on blog frog. It's nice to "meet" you!
Esther Irish - It's nice to meet you! We really enjoyed Genghis Grill and will be going back there in the future.
Good for you!!

Kristin - Thank you!
My husband and I love date night! ;) It's great to get away from work, household chores and the kids for a little bit.
Yeah, it is always nice to go and spend quality time with your husband. I can't seem to get mine to appreciate, at least not verbally, the value in alone time.
Do we have a Ghengis Grill around here? Glad you had a Friday night date night!

Great photos! Glad you and your hubby enjoyed your date night.
The pictures look like you had a wonderful time. Gengis Grill can be points friendly, but only if you can measure out your own sauce. I go to a mongolian grill where you are in total control of what goes on. I like that kind of eating, because you can pile on the veggies. I usually set aside half my rice, so it's pretty friendly. BTW, give your husband a big hug from me. He's giving you a Friday night!
Kristen - Me too!
Social Butterfly - My husband rarely says it out loud, but I know that he does.
Thanks Rebekah!
Midori - Thank you!
I found a link to your blog on TheBlogFrog! You and your husband make such a cute couple. I'm a new follower!
Great job on your weight loss! I have lost about 70 pounds so I know what you are going through. I feel like I am in the best shape of my entire life at 28 and have made fitness a priority! I even started teaching cycling at Gold's! :) Keep it up!
