A Sweet Weekend

Friday Night:

We had some of our good friends, Jack & Dani over for a celebratory dinner.

They just found out they are pregnant.

We are so excited for them!

For dessert we had a traditional Pumpkin Pie with Whipped Cream.

We all had such a wonderful night & were completely stuffed!

This was our first time at The Steel Pig and it did not disappoint. 

We will definitely be frequent customers.

I cannot believe it took us this long to try it out!

After the most delicious dinner, we walked around downtown looking at gorgeous Christmas store fronts. & then saw a local production of "A Christmas Carol" at The Temple Theater. 

It was such a fabulous performance, we cannot wait to go see "The Swinging Cowboys" in January.

It was such a blissful date with the Love of my Life.

Sunday: 

We finished up our Christmas shopping in Raleigh.

We are officially done, all the gift are wrapped & tied up with string.

We finished off the weekend with snuggles & Christmas movies.

A PERFECT weekend, I tell ya.

Have a great week!
