Advent Calendar 2011 – Christmas Sweetheart Memories

For ten or maybe closer to a dozen years, my sweetheart and I have not had any occasions to do anything really special with just the two of us around the holidays.  Even shopping has been a challenge for us in past years.  It’s not easy to sneak away when you have four kids!  Now that we have one of babysitting age, we were able to go out tonight and make a very nice memory.  We had a wonderful dinner, browsed around the mall, and then went to a late movie.  We really enjoyed watching everyone in the mall, knowing that we are all set and can enjoy each other and our family for the holidays without any stress.
