We had to stop by the store for Cookie Friday ingredients on the way to Date Night. While there, I decided to create my own ghetto version of the design-y balloon trend.
Did it work?
In case you are like my husband and don’t frequent girly blogs… here’s an example.
Sweet engagement photo shoot with balloons (via Green Wedding Shoes).
I guess I’m not quite there yet with corrieanne.com. That’s okay. Because we had a great dinner! We had been eyeing HBurger for a while (thanks to LGSmash), and tonight was the night!
Kevin was a manly man and ordered the Prairie Burger (buffalo), while I went with the Mace Burger (turkey).
Hungry K!
Can you believe I chose asparagus over french fries!? I made Kevin order extra large fries so I could have a few.
I loved my burger. It came with some kind of green chile sauce instead of mayo. That’s a genius idea. Who wants mayo on a turkey burger? Not this girl!!!
And I still had room in my stomach for fro yo!!
We cheated on Yogurtini and went to Menchie’s because it was nearby. Of course, we spent the whole time weighing the pros and cons of the two. Yogurtini is obviously going to be the winner 99% of the time due to proximity reasons!! I like Yogurtini’s flavors better, and Kevin likes their toppings better. But, Menchie’s gave us a free bouncy ball named Sprinkles and said,”Have a smiley night” when we left…
The teacher in me can’t resist a chalkboard!
This is like a workout!! My legs were feeling the burn!
What a sweet wife.
I told Kevin,”Your turn.”
Oh my.
He is sooooooooooo funny!!! 
He redeemed himself.
Barely.
And then we played a round of bouncy ball. Probably two groups of people came and left while we were hanging out at Menchie’s. Haha.
As it turned out, I was very clumsy with the bouncy ball. I think Kevin blamed it on being home schooled. The principal might want to send him in email on that. I believe we were, in fact, schooled in bouncy balling. I blame it on my poor vision.
Slipped right through my fingers!!! Kevin has already instructed me that I’m only allowed to play with the bouncy ball while Boyd is napping. Boyd would definitely scarf down a bouncy ball. Especially one named Sprinkles!!
We weren’t ready to go home yet so we swung be Super Target. We really know how to stay out of trouble on a Thursday night…
I have my EYE on this big pink corduroy heart pillow! I want it! But I will bide my time and wait for it to come on sale. I think I need to go shopping on February 15, for sure!
We are up way past Kevin’s bed time so I’m out! Sweet dreams. And check out the 2 Ingredient Fudge. Perfect last-minute Valentines treat!! It’s apparently a man magnet too if you’re looking. I had several men strike up conversations with me at the office today when I was in the vicinity of the fudge and even on the elevator. Including one asking me if “I had anyone special to bake for.” Yes, I do. And trust me, you’re lucky he’s sharing!!!!
P.S. I’m totally in love with my new pink gingham jacket. It’s the Candy Connoisseur coat from Mod Cloth. It rates a 1.5 on the warmth scale. Haha. I would!
Thanks for the review – I was curious if H Burger was good. If you’re in that area the place to get a frozen treat is on 8th, Cloud Nine Frozen Custard. The best in all the land!
YUM! glad you tried HBurger – it’s pretty great for a ‘fast food’ burger, I think!
You and your husband are too cute
I haven’t gone there yet, but I really should since it’s so close to where I live. Menchies gives away the best toys….and to adults at that!
I love your outfit – well I guess your outwear. It’s sooo cute! You guys look like you had a blast and the food looks fabulous!
ok, I totally skipped the end of this blog (*gasp*) just to write this post inmediatamente………I LOVE YOUR COAT AND I WANT ONE JUST LIKE IT AND WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME YOU GOT THAT AND WHY WASN’T ONE SHIPPED TO ME ALREADY??????????? Yeah, I like it that much! =) So now I’ll go back to reading your blog. (you’re barely forgiven
)
Bahh you two are so cute! I LOVE that jacket!! You look adorable in it! What a fun date, and fro yo always makes the night better!
I think I’m going to have to get frozen yogurt tonight, that looks delicious! Also, you and your husband are so cute, love your little date nights
I love your jacket! And I would totally get asparagus over french fries. The balloon idea is so cute.
Hmmm…burgers! Chris is a big burger lover – we might have to try that place out! I’m just excited to try the asparagus, was it good?!
We seriously need to expand our frozen yogurt horizons, Yogurtland is right near our main grocery store so its our main stop but we’ve driven by so many others! Until we moved to CO we never had anything like Yogurtland/Menchie/Yorgutini so its all new to us!
You jacket is SUPER cute!
You always have the BEST jackets!! Love it!
I love the new coat, it is so you. Oh my, bouncy balls brings back memeries of each of you kids in a doorway in the living room playing, that game with your dad.
It’s not “that game”, Mom. It’s kookoo ball!!! Hahaha.
great one
The burgers look delicious (and it’s breakfast here!). I love balloons.
