We decided that we would take dinner and cook it outdoors at a nearby lake/park. We had steak, french fries, and corn. Cara had steak, grilled cheese sandwich (tofutti cheese and earth balance butter on homemade bread) and wafer cookies. I set up the tent for the girls to play in and since Cara doesn't walk yet, it kept her out of the stickers. Justin did all the cooking and clean-up (except, I took down the tent). It was fun but got dark REALLY fast. We ended up shining the car lights on the table so we could see our food. It was fun and we will do it again, cause it is a free night out!!
As a side note...did you know that Redbox has free movie rentals on Monday night (with a promo code)? We just found this out and rented "Nancy Drew" for FHE yesterday. Can't beat a free movie. Let me know if you need to know how this is done, or maybe we are really behind in receiving this entertainment secret.
