A Night Out

I have been waiting for the day when Zack was consistent in his schedule so that we could put the kids down and have our neighbor Melissa, who is a Junior at Kamehameha (i.e. responsible), hang out at the house while the kids slept so that Matt and I could go out.  I have mentioned to Lisa a few times that I was dying for a chocolate souffle at Roy's and some good wine and being the fabulous and grateful friend that she is she got a a gift card for Roy's at Ko'Olina to thank us for handing down Zack's clothes.  It was so nice and thoughtful..Claud your gift is in the mail ( soon!).

Matt and I had a great evening.  We put the kids down by 7 and were out the door by 7:05.  We had a great couple of hours to enjoy each other and were home in time to get decent sleep (which is key to a night out...it is no fun for anyone if you are exhausted the next day!).  If Melissa is game, we are hoping to make it a monthly thing.  It worked out perfectly for us and I think she got to hang out and play on her computer and watch movies so it was a win-win situation.
