This past week David and I had an amazing date night. Thankfully our wonderful friends, Chris and Rachel, were willing to watch Savannah while we were away. We are so grateful to them, especially since Rachel is almost eight months pregnant!
We started our date at Natty Greene's, a well-known pub and restaurant in downtown Greensboro. It's named after General Nathaniel Greene from whom Greensboro gets its name. The food was yummy and I love that the restaurant is in a revitalized old brick building. The atmosphere is definitely part of the fun.
After dinner we walked across the street to the historical Carolina Theater. The Theater opened in 1926 and has been completely restored. It now shows theater productions, hosts events, and plays old, classic movies. I had to go when I saw they were showing the movie "Singing in the Rain." David had never seen it and what better way to introduce him to this classic than at a theater that was around when the movie originally debuted?! I can't express how fun it was!
(Sorry for the bad photo quality. We only had our cell phones.)
A few days later, Savannah and I went to lunch with David and our niece/cousin Caroline. Whenever they are together it is very apparent that Savannah adores Caroline! Caroline can always make Savannah laugh and smile. Here's a picture of Caroline reading Savannah a book in Chik-Fil-A. Don't you love Savannah's excited face? :)
Today we went to Rachel and Chris' apartment for a surprise birthday party for Chris. Our friend Priscilla was there with her daughter, Penelope. Penelope is three months younger than Savannah and she looks so small next to her. She is so cute! These two are going to be friends!
Bonus Pic: I painted Savannah's toes for the first time this week. The results were a little blotchy but not horrible for our first try.
