Dating You Six ~ Slumber Party for Two!

It's really cold here in Connecticut.  The wind is whipping, the temps are dropping more in the days to come, and there's snow storm coming this weekend.  You know what I think of when the weather is like this.  Yeah, time to cozy up the house even more!  What can I cook?  What should I bake?  Maybe I should redo out game basket under the coffee table in the family room... I get all excited.  I love each and every season.  And blogging this date on a cold weather day like this seems fitting.  After all it was a cozy, at home date in front of the fireplace, oh la la!  (music for ya) 

Here's what the date card looked like :

We ate pizza and played this game. So much fun to go back and relive all the old memories. It had us laughing so much we were crying!

  1. I. love. You.
    You are an amazing wife, my friend.
    An amazing mother too, of course.
    But you remind me to remember my sweet hubby...the guy who sometimes, I have to admit, gets lost amid the chaos of a home with two teenage girls, a tween boy, a preschooler, an OCD mom, and a dog...
    Yay you, my friend.
    Hugs!
