I’ve had all these date ideas that I’m excited to do, but many of them would work a whole lot better in sunny warm weather. So instead, I decided that we’d have a slumber party. I wasn’t feeling too awake, having just gotten back from playing a game of ice hockey (I scored!), but it was still a fun evening with Nathan.
I set up the living room with a cozy blanket, a bunch of candles, mixed drink, and snacks. Just like back in middle school and high school. Well, I’m sure I would have had a bag of candy back then.. hmmm, maybe that’s an idea for next time ;-)
We snuggled up together and watched the end of the hockey game (Go Canucks, go! This bit was a bit impromptu, as I’d forgotten about the game. Next, I pulled out some old episodes of Freaks and Geeks. It was definitely enjoyable!
Upon Nathan’s suggestion, we pulled out our bottle of almond tequila that we’d bought in Mexico. Whew. I’m not a tequila fan, that’s for sure. Nevertheless, I did my shot of this stuff with no chaser. It wasn’t too bad! I’ll even admit that it had a great aftertaste of almondy sweetness. Almost yum.

Sounds good – unplanned is good in my book, just see what happens is my life motto.
Almond tequila sounds interesting! xo
PS love you blog background
I’m a walking contradiction. I love being super organized with everything pre-planned, but I also love winging it and seeing how things go!
I’m enjoying the background too. I can’t take credit for it though; it’s a theme I found.
