Even with all of the painting, Taylor and I decided to take advantage of our alone time and go out.  I bought a $25 gift card from restaurant.com almost a year ago for the Boathouse Restaurant.  We were finally able to use it yesterday.  It was a fun little place right on the San Diego harbor.  We sat at a table that over-looked the water where the boats were all parked.  It was nice to just spend time together and not worry about getting home to the kids.  On Monday night we ran some errands together.  We didn’t have to be back to put the kids to bed and we didn’t have to drag them all over the place.  It’s so easy to get things done without them around!  This morning we went to the temple.  That’s another thing that we don’t do often enough, just because it’s so hard to get away.  We had a nice relaxing time (when we weren’t painting).  I’m glad to have my kids back and I think they’re excited to be home, but it was sure nice to not have to worry about them for the last few days.
