Despite Brandon's view of Valentine's Day being the most overrated holiday (even more than St. Patrick's Day...I think not), he still knows how to make a girl swoon. I decided that, to be fair, I would treat Brandon to a date night on February 13th, and then he could pamper me on February 14th. Luckily, my plan included slipping on ice in our driveway and hitting my head. My blurry vision, pale face, and blue lips gave me a one-way ticket to bed...so, my poor Brandon didn't really get to enjoy his special day. (luckily, I had done the 12 Days of Valentine's...so he had 11 other days of goodness in exchange)....
On Saturday, we enjoyed a free night out. We started out at the Temple and then headed over to Outback Steakhouse to use our gift card I got from work. Ahhh...the joys of a free date night. And, not to be outdone with the free night, we decided to splurge and spend a dollar on a RedBox. I mean, come on..did you think we were THAT cheap?!?
Here is the only picture I took. I know, I look like I had just hit my head in the picture. I'd like to say the flash startled me. Or that Brandon was pinching my rump. But really...You can't blame a girl for not being photogenic.

Here we are waiting for only 20 minutes at Outback....I mean, come on: time is not free, folks. And well, (ahem) let's just say, the night didn't end there.

What a fun date night! So about your head - are you okay. I am so glad we have blogs to keep tabs on eachother cause I miss you
Oh, your poor head!! I'm glad that when you came to it, you still remembered who Brandon was and didn't delete the last few years of your life from memory... that would have been a tragedy.
P.S.... EVERYNIGHT I WISH I HAD A SNUGGIE TOO!!!! Good thing husbands can keep you warm.

boo! your poor head. but um...only a 20 min wait at outback on vday night?? that sounds like a miracle to me. and...gross visual. thanks.
I just had to tell you that Eric loved that you ended your re-telling of V-day with "let's just say, the night didn't end there."
And my Dad got a Snuggie for Christmas! I didn't realize people actually bought them, but leave it up to my family to buy Christmas gifts off infomercials!
Wait - it didn't end there? I don't get it. Why didn't you finish the story? Where did it end???
I really actually DON'T want the answer to that question. :) I'm gonna go sing primary songs now.
