Date Night

Today Joe and I had a date night where we went to dinner and a show.  We went to try a new seafood restaurant that opened up near us called The Drunken Crab.  They sell seafood by the pound in a bag filled with a seasoning sauce of your choice.  We got snow crab legs in garlic butter sauce and shrimp in their special house sauce.  Both were really delicious although messy as you can imagine.  We also got a side of sweet potatoes fries.  Now that we’re expectant parents we always notice people with kids and babies everywhere we go.  There was a couple there with a baby in a high chair and of course we imagined that being us in the near future.

Afterward we went to The Aerial Classroom’s production of Snow White.  My old aerial school puts on some really great performances.  I had caught their Sleeping Beauty show two years ago and loved it!  It’s a fairy tale love story with an aerial twist.  They use the different apparatuses to convey emotions.  This one had a flaming cube, lyra, Spanish web, bungee cords and double trapeze and double tissu routines.  All pretty cool.  And it was nice to see my old teachers and classmates and catch up with them.  They haven’t seen me with my baby bump.  It also reminded me of how much I miss class but it’ll still be a while before I can go back.
