Date Night

Tonight hubby and I had our date night. We are taking turns planning our dates and this week was my turn. My Plan A was a picnic at a nearby lake, flying a kite, and watching the sunset. TW LOVES sunsets! However, the weather did not want to cooperate. It was a bit chilly and overcast so no sunset. So instead we had our own makeshift drive in movie theatre! Thanks to my homie Brooke for the last minute idea! We went to grab dinner and then we headed to the lake and parked in a spot right near the water. We made a cozy pallet in the back of our suburban and watched a movie on our laptop. And, of course we had cupcakes! It was so much fun! And, it hardly cost a thing! We loved it and will be doing it again!

Love. Them.

Our lovely girls. They never miss a second to pose for the camera. This is a picture of them at our church. They got these cute outfits from their grandparents earlier in the day and they were excited to wear them. I must say I wish both of these outfits came in my size. They are rockin it! But the thing I love about them even more is that they show true beauty everyday. True beauty that is on the inside and reflects the love of Christ to others. They love others in a tremendous way through their encouraging words and by pointing others to Christ. They have such a deep knowledge of the scriptures...even more than I do. That is something I admire in my girls. They have a good sense of self and are willing to speak up for others. They look out for one another and for their little brother. They are each other's number 1 fan. They are not just sisters they are sweet friends. I love it. I have a little sister. I wish I was half as nice to her as my girls are to one another. Growing up I didn't value her and treat her the way I wish I would have...they way she deserved to be built up and encouraged. This is the main reason I point my daughter's to treat one other they would want to be treated. I remind them often that they have each other for life. I want to be sure I encourage them in their friendship! So, yes these girls sure do look stinkin cute, but even better...their hearts are gorgeous!
