a sneaky date night

so on monday night trevor and i had a conversation that went like this...

T: hey do you want to get a babysitter tomorrow night and go out?
N: ya that would be fun. 
T: okay, well jeff {his golfing buddy} offered to watch the kids anytime. 
N: oh really? well that's perfect. we could go see a movie or something.
T: okay. what ever movie you would like.....

about 2 minutes later....

T: sooooo..... would you care if i go golfing tomorrow at noon with the guys? 

and at that moment i realized he knew EXACTLY what he was doing. he just got me all excited for a REAL date night {which hasn't happened in a while} and then casually dropped the bomb. because he had just been golfing the ENTIRE day with the guys and he knew there was no way i would consent to a noon tee time on tuesday. 

but i happily agreed. 
because hey, i was getting a tuesday night away from the kids to go on a real date! 
he is so good at getting what he wants. 


we had dinner, saw Man of Steel, and ended with ice cream. 
although i didn't love the movie, which is a bummer because i was SO excited to finally see it, we had a great night!

and now i am thinking maybe i need to put a little more crack down on the golfing so i can get a few more date nights out of it ; )


and a HUGE thanks to the Gardner's for watching our kids!
