21 Dates of summer: Dates 20 & 21

September 26, 2012

Posted 09/12

So sad to have this series come to its end. Gabe and I were talking about how this series pushed us to do some of the things we have been wanting to do since we moved back to Atlanta. Thankful to have some pictures to hold them in our short term memories as well:)

We love the outdoors, and Atlanta is beautiful at the turn of the seasons. We went to an old favorite spot to listen to some music on their patio, take advantage of free chips and salsa, and of course feed our sweet tooth problem..

It wouldn’t have been a complete date series without a little competition. Gabe and I thrive off a little competition with each other. When it comes to any game, it gets serious.

Mario Kart, basketball, and skee ball were all in the mix. We were rolling through that joint like high schoolers. $5.00 can provide an hour of fantastic entertainment. Its pretty cool to be married to your best friend. Can’t get enough of that boy.

Thanks for following along this summer! If you are new here, you can check out all 21 dates here. If you blogged about one this summer, leave a link in the comment section below! (Was going to do a link up section but they expire:/) I can’t wait to see some of the dates you all went on.

Love, Anna

Our dates this summer are usually family dates. 😀 We have not gone out with just hubby and I since K was born but need to. Wish our family was closer so they can just swing by and watch her. hehe Have a good week Anna!

What a FUN date! I love the competition as well. I mean, we have to remind how men who is better at everything right?

And those bangs? still dying for them…
