Date night



Dallas is an interesting area. Although family friendly, not a whole lot to do for a newly married, LDS couple. Basically, you have the options of shopping, eating and catching a movie. Since we are trying to save for a house, date nights have become a bit more creative :) Jess and I love the travel channel and watch Bizarre foods with Andrew Zimmern all the time. I think we were watching an episode that took place near the ocean. This must have sparked an idea in my mind and the next Friday we bought a live lobster. I was a little squeamish about the boiling part....so I let Jesse do that part, and I made the garlic sauce :) Probably the best lobster I have had, and something new to do to keep things fun!

Branson


We were able to spend several days in this gorgeous resort in Branson, Missouri. We went hiking, paddle boating on the lake, miniature golfing and just relaxing. Jess and I had some needed R&R as well as delicious food!
