A Night Out on the Town ...


A friend of mine learned an important lesson this past week. Lesson: Don't make a random suggestion around the rest of us if you don't want it actually carried out. Case in point, Brad randomly mentioned one day that he wanted to dress up in his suit and go out to dinner one night. WELL, we heard the idea and ran with it. ('We' is Kristen, Steve, and I.) We made a day of shopping. It took quite a bit of work and several hours, but we finally found the dresses we wanted and Steve bought a suit. The guys were put in charge of the reservations and us girls just had to focus on getting ready and trying to be on time. I'm sure this is no shock, but we were far from being on time. Thankfully, this didn't ruin our dinner reservations. We went to a cute little Italian restaurant and had WONDERFUL Lasagna. Then we headed to the movies. This part was great because we were strolling through town in our fancy dresses and got the best looks EVER from the people around us. As if we didn't already have people staring at the Americans (see the previous entry), we decided to dress up like we were some important somebodys and stroll through town. We walked into the movie slightly late and got even more funny looks. I'm pretty sure we disrupted the movie. But hey, at least we were fashionably late! After the movie, we headed for Starbucks. It's not a night out on the town here if we don't hit up Starbucks. We succeeded in getting more crazy looks and taking lots of pics. The night was completely random and crazy, but it was oh so much fun.

Here's a link if you want to look at pics of the evening ... hopefully it'll work:
