Date Night

Over Fall Break Matt & the girls were gone so Jaden & I got to spend
some time alone...which doesn't happen often!!

Friday night I told him that he was taking me on a date!
I let him pick anywhere in our town and to my surprise...
He picked Olive Garden...he's gonna make a great catch
for some sweet girl some day!

As a family we don't eat out much so when we do...it's a real treat!

Why did he pick Olive Garden...Simple...
HE. LOVES. BREADSTICKS!
Who really cares about the fettucini in that bowl of his...

We had a great time. Went to Old Navy to buy the poor boy some jeans....Target for some new undies & I had a Pumpkin Spice Frap from Starbucks & I bought him a 1/2 gallon cookie dough ice cream. We ate our treats & watched "How to Train a Dragon". That is such a great movie!! Thumbs up from this mom!
Getting to spend time alone with Jaden was priceless. He is a talker when you get him going so you learn so much about what he likes. When you have 3 kids it can get tricky to have one on one time so any time I can...I enjoy it! I want my boy to be a gentleman & know how to treat a lady. I know God already has a particular lady picked out for him...I have been praying since the day he was born for her! Now of course he has no interest in girls yet...but the day will come soon enough for this mom. 

Do you get to take your kiddos out on a special date one on one? 
If so...what is something special you get to do?
