Date Night

Something Sabrina and I haven't been good on lately is having a date night regularly. Lots of excuses we could use and all are legitimate. Finding and paying for a babysitter for four kids is a killer. I heard a pastor say one time about having lots of kids: "It's not that I really like kids, it's just I love my wife a lot". I like that! After paying for a babysitter for a couple hours that doesn't leave much money left, especially if you want to go to a nice dinner or a movie (which is a ripoff). So I heard of another pastor doing this and we started last night and had a blast. On Thursday nights we are going to wait to eat dinner until after the kids go to bed. (8 o'clock at the latest) Then we are going to cook our own dinner together, either a recipe I select earlier in the week or one Sab wants to do, and then sit down to watch a movie or something together. Last night we cooked homemade pizza and HOLY COW it was good. It had to be some of the best pizza I've had. While in the kitchen we actually had time to hold a normal adult, husband and wife conversation. We'll try out new stuff and just have fun hanging out together. Every once in a while we'll treat ourselves to a night out, but doing it this way we can schedule a regular date night, and not even have to leave the house. Sabrina said she likes it because she can boss me around the kitchen, AND SHE DID! Anyway, not that you wanted to know we had a date night, but thought I'd share. I love my wife and love spending time with her. Even if she is bossing me around!
