March Date: Denton Memories

Our March date was a combination of two choices: Relive our First Date (Mel's pick) and Dinner, Recycled Books, Beth Marie's Ice Cream (Jared's pick).  Our first date, May 12th-ish 2002 in Denton, included dinner a Bari's Italian Restaurant, putt-putt, and a long talk at South Lakes Park. Bari's and the putt-putt place are no longer in business... has it been that long!?  We decided to have dinner at the Green House which is one of two nice restaurants in Denton.  The other is Guiseppe's Italiana, which is where we had our rehearsal dinner.  Dinner was amazing and was followed by Jared's favorite bookstore: Recycled Books.  I know, I know... date number three of 2013 and it involves books again....... it's what we love!  
  



After Recycled Books (which took an hour and 15 minutes), we headed to Beth Marie's Old Fashion Ice Cream on the Denton Square.  It was great walking around the square where we took our engagement pictures in the winter of 2002.

 South Lakes Park was next on the agenda to find the picnic table where we talked for hours. Sad to say, the picnic table was gone. We reminisced about picnics and walks we enjoyed when we were friends, dating, and engaged in college.





Last but not least, we drove by our first apartment.


God is so good and has blessed us with an amazing marriage this past 10 years!

Austin Adventures

We started out our "Spring Break Austin Adventure" at SXSW with the family... well, kind of.  A friend of my parents opened up a food trailer called Valentinas Tex Mex on 6th street. It was delicious!! We sat on the patio of Star Bar next door and ordered drinks.  Check out my sister's blog :) for  pictures!










Dawson wasn't a fan of singing!

We had a blast hanging out with my family for almost a week. Of course both kids got sick (sinus infections), but all in all a great trip! We enjoyed several Austin "hot spots:" Amy's Ice CreamBook People,  Opa!, and of course the Shaw Patio :)
