Tonight, my mom stayed at the hotel with the kids while Frank and I went on our first (and only) date of 2008! We went to one of our favorite restaurants - The Melting Pot! Our friend Lisa and her mom gave us a wonderful gift card to use there so we have been looking forward to it for a long time! We ate good food, talked about the kids and laughed a lot. It was nice to spend time together that didn't involve typing in an instant message screen! Thanks Mom for taking care of the kids! More tomorrow!

Okay, so you can update. Have tears of joy in my eyes right now! I know why Frank's there but what a blessing that FRANK'S THERE! Thank you, Lord!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YAY!! That's one happy picture. :) And your hair is super cute!
Darling couple with equally darling children! We will have you all close at heart and deep in prayer as you begin another leg of your journey. Kennedy is an amazing child who inspires countless people with her strength, courage,and resiliency. She has captivated our hearts and lives there forever.
What a treat! So glad you guys had a night out and what a handsome couple you are!
How wonderful to see you two in the same picture! Glad you had fun!
Like your necklace, I have one much like it but I don't have #4 on it yet! (Um, DH...?)
Praying away here!

Hope you guys are enjoying the time together!
So glad to see that Frank is with you and the kids. Nice to hear that you had a date night out - you both deserve the time together. Try to enjoy the time and please keep us posted on how everyone is doing at the hotel.
I am so happy that you 2 got some alone time.. Love the pic!!
What an awesome picture! So glad you guys got to enjoy the Melting Pot together! Did you tell Frank what I thought it was yet? LOL
yay for first dates.. Ive come to the conclusion that your mom needs a blog too!!
So glad that you got some time with Frank! Glad that your Mom is there for you! Big hugs.
Oh that sounds wonderful! So glad you had a chance to just enjoy each other for a while!
Awww, you're such a cute couple! I'm glad you got some time alone together!
What a beautiful couple (and picture)!!! So glad you got some alone time!!!!!
That is so awesome that you were able to have some alone time and go out on a date. (Thanks Grandma!) You look so cute together! I bet the kids are loving having dad back too.
OMG I'm so happy for you guys!!! Yay!
Sorry I haven't had any time to leave comments lately, but wanted to let you know I've got Kennedy in my prayers for her surgery! So glad you all arrived safely and that you had a date night with Frank!
Oh, what a beautiful sight! To see you and Frank together! YAY! Such a fabulous couple who deserve all the goodness that comes their way.
I'm so glad you got some alone time. I really want to go to The Melting Pot. Great picture!
Glad you had a good time! I have never been to the Melting Pot (not even sure if there are any within a 300 mile radius) but been wanting to try it. You both take a great picture! Did you make the waiter take it??(here's a question for your next answer post)
It's always nice to get away for togethertime. Enjoy!!!
I love Kennedy's new hair cut and we're praying from CANADA for her.
Keep you chin up and remain strong,
Carol
You guys look great together. I am thankful for his service but even more thankful you guys got some quality time together. Not enough of that for those who serve.
I am so happy he is safe and with you all together as a family. Even if it is for a short while and during a trying time in your life..there is nothing like having your soulmate/bestfriend on your side.
Have fun and try to relax for the next couple days.
Oh Renee, I am so glad that you and Frank got some alone time. That is very important in every relationship but more so when you don't see each other much. Kuddos to your mom for watching the kids. Will be praying for you over the next few days extra hard :)
YAY!!! It sounds like a great night! Welcome home Frank!!
I am SO glad you got a date night!!! Yeah! You look so pretty!
I'm praying for the upcoming surgery and for the recovery, all having to stay at a hotel. As a mom I can imagine how patience-testing that will be, but with lots of prayers going up on your behalf, I know that God will be taking good care of you all.
That is so great. We love the melting pot too. But never good when action is gonna happen that night. Your stomach is just way to full and you can never suck it in enough to look nice. :) Hope you had fun. H
Y'all are such a cute couple! I'm so happy for you that the family gets to be together for a little while...I'm praying for you all, especially for Kennedy, every day...every chance I think to during the day actually.
I read your blog about One Year Ago ... and it brought tears to my eyes. I saw Kennedy's photo on www.thebalsisfamily.blogspot.com and didn't realize at the time that Kennedy was your daughter. I sure will be praying for her and your family. How is she doing? My name is Heather and my blog about my little Down Syndrome baby is www.messickmom.blogspot.com. She just recently had heart surgery.
That is so great that you two got some alone time. And what a brave grandma to stay with four kids by herself in the hotel ;). Looks like you two enjoyed your evening together.
How nice for you two to get some kid free time together!
Congrats! I'll bet that was awesome - thanks so much for moms.
