We had dinner with some of Mike's family at the VanBeek's. Nice time with family, and the kids had a little egg hunt. It was nice that there were separate hunts for the babies and big kids. :) Levi did pretty good! Mike and I were fairly impressed that he kinda sorta had the hang of it.
Last Tuesday night Mike and I were able to go on a date! Pretty inexpensive one, too. :) Our babysitter is working off some of what she owes for me doing her engagement photos, we won a gift certificate to Carrabba's at our parenting class that we just finished, and we still have movie tickets to use that our babysitter gave us at Christmas. It was fun and I especially enjoyed sitting in the middle of Mike's new truck (something I haven't been able to do since he bought the Dodge when we were dating...). :)
Thursday evening Mike and I headed out on an adventure! We dropped the kids off at VanBeek's, and my mom brought us to the airport. We flew down to Florida, got in late, spent the night with Mike's grandparents, had breakfast and a little time to visit with them in the morning, then headed over to Lakeland to get my grandma's dog and van. We picked up the dog from the ladies that were watching her over the past week while my grandma was already back in Michigan - oh my. Sweet, sweet ladies, but they were something else! So anyways, Friday afternoon we started making the trek back to Michigan. Drove a few hours that day, almost 12 hours on Saturday, and then a few hours Sunday morning. Not exactly a relaxing vacation, but it was nice to have time together without the kids, and we really didn't mind the dog either.

We enjoyed eating at Chick-fil-A a few times.
Our BRIGHT blue rental car - the pic doesn't do it justice.
