It's all good

 Date nights are fun. Some people think work parties are boring, but we think they are super awesome because you get a night out and a free dinner, score!

I'm especially fond of the toys in the background

I have no idea, we are just weird, and possibly Brian is trying to strangle me ;)

 So yeah, Brian and I had fun at his work party. It was just dinner but we sat next to some nice people and chatted it up with them. Afterwards Brian and I went to the Starbucks inside Fred Meyer, got a drink and walked around. Yep, we are CRAZY ;)
It was nice and mellow and just what we needed.
Saturday started out pretty awesome, Grammy let us sleep in and got up with both girls. It continued on pretty normal until about 11 or so when Bria was screaming and crying in pain. She had been complaining of a sore throat since Wednesday and I kept her home from preschool on Thursday because she felt pretty sick. She had a fever during the night but it went away. I figured it was a cold that just had to run it's course but on Saturday when she was in consolable I took her to Immediate Care. On the way there she fell asleep, unheard of. In the room waiting for the doctor to come in she fell asleep on me, COMPLETELY unheard of. On the way home, she fell asleep again, WHAT?! This girl was in bad shape. The doctor checked her ears and she had a double ear infection plus double pink eye. So she's on antibiotics which is great. She stopped complaining of her ears that same night after only two doses of antibiotics. She still sounds sick but is doing much better.
Saturday evening we thought it would help Bria to see some Christmas lights so we hopped in the car and drove around looking at Christmas lights. I made her some hot chocolate which helped her sore throat and both girls "oooohed" and "ahhhhed" over all the lights. We stumbled upon a house that put on a show every half hour, they have you tune into a certain radio channel and then bam, you are blown away with a 10 minute light show that is pretty stinkin' cool! The girls were in awe, although it's possible that I enjoyed it most :)
