Pleasant Surprises

Jason took an unexpected day off on Friday. He has been so busy with work and this month has seen a lot of illness in our house that we haven't had a lot of time to just relax together so he decided to take a much needed day off. We brought the kids to school and then headed into town. We relaxed for a little bit at Starbucks, did a bit of shopping, had lunch, and then decided to go to a movie. We went and saw Yes Man. It was a very funny movie. The movie ended at the perfect time and we headed off to get the kids from school. They were surprised to see both of us at pick up time. We played charades on the way home which the kids love since I introduced it to them a couple weeks ago. WE played with the kids for a little bit until Iva arrived and then we headed out for dinner. We finally remembered to make reservations at Cafe de Paris which our friends Kurt and Sara told us about before they left Prague (thanks guys!). The restaurant is very small and the food was delicious. The steak was cooked perfectly and the desert was incredible. I love creme brulee but most places serve it cold and I really like it warm. I was thrilled when I took my first bite and it was warm. Next time we go I'm ordering the larger portion of creme brulee!

So glad you liked the restaurant! It was one of our favorites. Sorry, to have missed Burns night. It looked like it was as much fun as last yeat!
