Krystal and Justin - June Date!

You know your date rocked when you are tired and sore afterwards!  :)  Our June date was a mini vacation to the wonderful state of Minnesota to experience the Minneapolis Marathon and 1/2 Marathon.  We drove to Minneapolis on Saturday before the race and picked up our race packets, figured out a hotel we could stay at (Aloft - awesome!), and then went to the Mall of America for some shopping.  We ended the evening with some yummy pasta dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory restaurant in downtown Minneapolis.

We woke up bright and shiny the next morning and I walked down to the starting line with Justin so he could start the full marathon.  The 1/2 marathon started an hour later, so I sat and "people watched" until the start of my race.  The race itself was a little boring.  It was just mainly an out and back hairpin course along a park.  I had not trained enough, so I walked a bit starting with mile 10.  I was happy to be done running and go get my free beer at the end!

We stopped at another restaurant on our way home and had lunch, so we asked our server to snap a quick photo of us with our bling!!

Josh and Robyn June Date

Josh and I took a family vacation to Santa Rosa Beach, Florida.  We were lucky to have my mother in law come along to help with our three daughters.  We didn't exactly get a date night, instead, we were able to sneak away for 2 hours to sit on the beach.  That was all we did.....sit.....and drank a few beers.  The waves were pretty rough that afternoon so it was an opportunity for us to just relax and unwind on the beach.  Uneventful and wonderful all at the same time!

Penelope and Morty June Date

Morty came home for a visit over Father's Day weekend.  After putting the little tot to sleep we were able to watch a movie in it's entirety.  We saw the Ides of March (we are a little behind on our movies).  It was nice spending time with my bunny since I never get to see him!!  We close on our house in August so we will be together again soon.  Better date nights to come!!

Steph & Craig - June Date

We were lucky enough to steal away for a long weekend in the heart of Scottsdale.  We chose the Phonecian which is very old school resort.  We had the best of times.  We did NOTHING, when I say that, what I mean is that we sat by the pool for 3 days and ate nachos and drank margaritas.  We thought it very cool that you can order that goods and just sign your name by a little x and they bring it on to you.  Imagine our surprise when the bill came about later.

Amber and Matt June Date Summary

We had our date for June the first Saturday of June.  Brock went to a sleepover and Matt and I were sad about being home alone.  This was our first day that we did not see Jolie after leaving the hospital.  {Note- this date was done before we knew about the Change of Heart with the birth mother}

Matt had worked Friday night so he slept most of the day Saturday.  After I dropped off Brock at the party, we headed to the local brewery.  We enjoyed a few of the house brews and played a game of Yahtzee.  Here is Matt's Yahtzee from game.

Matt won this time! 

It was nice to stay close to home and be out and relax.  We enjoyed the spur of the moment night together and it was fun to play the game there.  We have always loved board games.
