I absolutely LOVE having my two babies!

But, Nate's and my time together has dwindled down to nothing it seems. With his work days and hours plus two little kiddos (one being a nursing baby that wont take a bottle), there isn't much time for Date Nights anymore. SO, I got together with sisters-in-law and made a plan! :) We figured out a schedule that allows each couple one date night a month, and we each babysit once a month. Pretty exciting!

Tonight was our date night and Nate and I have decided to take turns planning our dates. Tonight we went to a restaurant I have been wanting to try forever! It's called Twigs. It's at Famington Station Park, which is a gorgeous new shopping and dining plaza about 15 minutes from us. I love it! I wish it was closer, I'd be there all the time. They even have an amazing playset for the kids and a huge water fountain and stuff!


Moroccan Beef
Sautéed beef tenders with a touch of Moroccan spices served with grilled focaccia points, gorgonzola fondue and balsamic glaze.


  
Crab Mac and Cheese
Fresh blue crab meat, shallots, smoked bacon, goat cheese, cheddar and jack cheeses, in a garlic cream sauce baked with cavatappi pasta and finished with tomato and chives.



Nate got this pizza that was their special today. It had blue cheese, pepperoni, chicken, barbeque sauce, some other things I cant remember...and yes, french fries. Surprisingly it was pretty good :)

And...probably my favorite thing, next to the Moroccan Beef was my (virgin) mojito. Instantly obsessed. Often times people that don't drink, but want a yummy drink will go for like a virgin daquari or something. I'm telling you, try a virgin mojito. Amazing!



 Amd here's a picture of the bistro that I obviously didn't take..

 We had such a great time, I am super excited to get to spend some time with this crazy awesome man of mine :)
