Learning to Be Friends Again

Sometimes I struggle with what to share on the blog.  I don't want to be fake but I also don't want to put out every intimate detail of my life out on the internet. But I feel like now is the time to share what's been going on lately.

I mentioned before that my life is kinda upside down right now.  Only a handful of people really know what that means.  But long story short, the Hubs and I have hit a rough patch.  Without going into detail, let's just say we're taking the time to really work on us.  As the Hubs put it, we have to learn to be friends again.

I've said it before...the Hubs is anything but romantic.  If you look up romantic in the dictionary, the Hubs is the opposite of the definition.  It's just not him.  I'm ok with that, however, every girl wants a little romance in their life.  Well the Hubs outdid himself.  He planned an entire date night that was simply amazing.  Just what the 2 of us needed.

I pulled into the driveway to find a bouquet of flowers tucked in our front door.  I came in and found flowers on our kitchen counter, on our entertainment center, on our dining room table, even in our bathroom.  The Hubs was hiding, just watching me find the flowers.

all my beautiful flowers put in vases

Then we were off to dinner.  We're so fortunate to live so close to the beach (like 10 minutes).  We headed down to Bubba Gumps (a restaurant close to our hearts...our first dinner there was on our honeymoon in Breckenridge) and had a waterfront seat.  We enjoyed our food, the views, and Coronaritas!!! {sorry for the horrible pics that follow....the Hubs's phone isn't as good as mine I guess}

Our Coronaritas!!!!

After dinner, we headed to fro yo (the Hubs was clearly making this night all about me!!!!)

Yogurtland is by far my fav (with Yogurtology a close second of course)

We always had plans to see Hunger Games last night but we opted to see it at our local theater instead of driving to St Pete to see it.  Plus that theater is right next to Yogurtland so it was perfect.  We bought our tickets and killed some time at Target.  {side note....I'm turning into such a girl.  I'm not one to wear makeup...like ever...but I've been trying to look cute on a daily basis now.  My Target purchases included a Transformer (for a patient), 3 nail polishes, a new eyeshadow, and makeup remover.  Who am I?} Then we were off to the movie.  The movie was awesome!  I don't want to go too much into a movie review but I was very pleased with it.  And it definitely made me want to read the second book even more.

I'm so thankful that the Hubs went out of his way to make this an amazing night for the both of us.  It meant the world to me that he tried to make it the best first date ever.  And you know what, it truly was.  It was actually better than our real first date.

Hubs.....sorry I blurted out some of our issues over the internet but I wanted everyone to know how amazing our night was.  I love you so much!!!  Here's to learning to be friends again!!!
