we headed out for a date night on the lake tonight. my mom had the kids. i packed dinner. randy prepared the boat. we grabbed some sweatshirts and some starbucks and off we went. 6 o'clock, billowy clouds, 75 degrees, nice. 6:30, dinner time, really cloudy, music on, happiness. 7pm, uh oh... rain's coming, let's head back. 7:10 really raining, stop right here under the bridge, can't make it back to dock since rain is stinging our faces. turn up radio, sit under bridge and watch it rain. 7:40 rain's gone, let's putt around the lake and watch the sunset. 8:15ish, sun sets. clouds come back. let's start heading back. 8:16... engine dies. crap! rain comes, again. trying to keep engine running. trying... trying. slow progress. still raining. 8:45 FINALLY make it back to "no wake zone", engine starts. HA! thanks!!! load up the boat. head home. get to mom's. conor has a migraine. throws up on way home. awesome. no more date nights for awhile.

That sounds like a great date night! Some fun, some romance, some laughs (perhaps looking back). I wouldn't let sick kids get in the way of more dates. Hope you and Randy get more time to love on each other and as well and some fun dates with the kids too!
Oh man! That sounds like one of those nights you cuss at as it's happening and then laugh until you pee years later when you remember it:)
At least it wasn't a date that will soon be forgotten! I love those kind, I hope that it was taken in stride and another was planned! Miss you guys
