We took ourselves out on a date.
It sure was a nice present.
I know dating isn't necessary for real love & romance.
But, getting time out to just be together
& talk about anything & have no interruptions...
It's a pretty sweet thing.
We live on the coast.
But, we don't actually go to the beach very often.
Scott doesn't like sand on him.
Anyway.
I was driving down the gorgeous
Pacific Coast Hwy a few weeks ago at the time of the sunset.
The sky was partially cloudy.
The sunset over the ocean was gorgeous.
Pretty much drop dead.
So, I thought when we go out on our date,
we ought to swing by the beach for a sunset walk.
It had been raining all day. So, even I didn't want a sandy walk prior to dinner.
Scott agreed to a paved coastal walk.
But, we seemed to have missed the sunset by a few minutes.
I'm not sure what happened there.
I even looked up the time of the sunset online.
I guess we'll just have to go again. (Oh well.)
We ate at Cafe Cruz. It had been a long time.
It's so good to go out for good food.
Except we both felt sick from gluttony afterward.

Happy birthday Scott and soon to be Erin. It sounds like you had a great time. Many blessings on your next year of life.
awww...this is sweet! I'm originally a so cal girl so your pics make me miss San Diego!
thanks so much for stopping by my blog!
I loved this, Erin. Your last two posts were beautifully written; that relationship with our husbands is so important.
And Happy Birthday Scott!
Happy Birthday to both of you! Sounds like a fun date!
Hello, Erin...I saw your mom link to your adoption dessert on FB, and then saw that you have a blog, so I peeked! It's so fun to see you all grown up and with a beautiful family. It makes me happy that you are happy loving and serving God in your home.
I am also happy to see Nicola commenting here (my daughters Anna and Bekah just got married a month apart, to guys from Montana and are going to church with Nicola now!) and Charlotte, whom I get to see now and then, too.
Many blessings on you and your sweet family.
