Just because

So last Saturday, we had attempted to make some plans with friends and it fell through. In fact, we had gone through several different plans all of which did not come to fruition. Upon realizing this late Friday night, that we would have a Saturday night free, Nate said "I have an idea" but didn't say anymore and we went to bed.

Saturday morning we got up and he told me "you have to be home today by 5:00. I have reservations somewhere at 5:30 and you have to dress nice" That was all the more he would tell me.

So I went about my errands for the day just positively giddy at a surprise night out wondering about where we'd be going. I got home with plenty of time to get all dolled up and we set out on our date.

He took me to Jax Cafe. It was such a nice treat! He told me "I want you to order whatever you want. I wanted to do something nice for you since we haven't been able to for so long." So I had a pork chop, salad, glass of wine and we shared the Baileys Chocolate Cream Cake for dessert. It was wonderful.

It was so nice to be able to do something like this just because. We didn't have anything special to celebrate other than just the day to day of being us. But you know what? That's ok. Sometimes you just need a treat!
