Last Saturday (the day after the 4th), "Gramma" Susan and "Grandpa" Peter (Abby's Grandparents) offered to watch all three kids...Abby, Nolan and Wes, so we could have a nice dinner out. They didn't have to ask us twice, we all jumped at the idea and our biggest decision was where to eat dinner! We went to Bluepoint in Destin and enjoyed a very nice, long, relaxing dinner. Afterwards we decided to stop in a local German restaurant/pub in honor of Becca and John, who would soon be returning to Germany. Becca kept saying how surreal it was to be in a German style atmosphere, knowing she was actually here. We sat outside and had a beer and then figured we better go relieve Susan and Peter (aka the saints!!!). We really can't thank them enough, but I'll try...THANK YOU!!!!! Nolan talked about "Gramma Susan" alot for coming days. I think he must miss his grandparents alot, too (hint, hint)!! But what I've learned and grown to love, is not only does the military become our family, but their extended family becomes very special, too!! When we got home the three kiddos were fast asleep so we played a couple games of beer pong before calling it a night.
Here's Chey & I at dinner:

WOW and adult night out... how awesome!!!! :) I am super jealous!
no--you're a saint! thx for being such an awesome blogger...we ran into Jake and Jamie at the club last night and they invited us out w/them this weekend...later, Ben and I were trying to remember everyone's names that we had met and I couldn't remember the Malone baby name, but remembered that you blogged when he was born last summer, so I looked thru your archives to find his name: Donovan! Thx again for being such a smart and savvy blogger! and BTW, I loved the rain pix--such a creative picture of the feet and Nolan "praising" the rain :)
An adult night!! How exciting!!
I still can't believe that is the first time all 4 of us have been out together without the kids! We will have to do it again soon!!
