It was a rainy and yucky day on Saturday, but the Pants Monkey and I did get our golf lesson in before it started. Then we decided to go out and have a little date night and in spite of the weather, I dressed up a little for him. He bought me this shirt at the same time as the dress I've been wearing that he gave me for Valentine's Day but I had to wait until it got nice out to wear it. And even though it was far from nice yesterday I just decided I wanted to pull it out. It's a little more risque than normal Bethie wear, but I like it.
Mr. Monkey was also kind enough to snap these pictures before we went to dinner, during a brief rain hiatus. I added the hat to the outfit both to protect my pretty head from the wet weather, but also as an ode to Carrie Underwood and the spirit of country music.
I'm also super impressed with how these pictures came out - he took them all on my iPhone! I have to say, it has a decent little camera in it!
I added my sparkly LOFT sweater because I thought I'd freeze a bit in a halter top at the restaurant. So, not as risque this way I guess. You'll see this shirt again this summer I'm pretty sure, it's a great date night top and I know I'll love it when it's 90 degrees outside.
Sunday was more of the same weather wise, but the Pants Monkey set himself up a canopy and smoked us some meats. And I'm sorry again, I have many vegetarian friends whom I respect and love, but I love me some meat and this was some outstanding meat. I'm such a carnivore. Mmm, meat.
And now into the work week the weather of course has improved! That's the way it always goes!! Spring in Minnesota, you have to love it.
