Top Two (Early) Tuesday

It's that time...time for

a little early!

Top 2 Tuesday is brought to you by The Undomestic Momma.

This weeks its Top 2 Dates.

1. I would have to say my most favorite was mine and Frank's first date. It wasn't necessarily what we did but what it was the beginning of- our life together.  Our first date had to be the best date I've ever been on because we were both just so comfortable with each other. It wasn't awkward like most first date. There were no awkward silences, no . We talked about everything like we'd known each other forever. We went to dinner at the Mustard Seed. I love that place. It has such a great quaint romantic atmosphere at night! After dinner, we went for a walk on the Battery, where we continued to talk. We ended up holding hands was we strolled along. After leaving the Battery, we stopped by his mom's house (she wasn't here of course) so he could take care of some business (romantic, right?). While he was in the bathroom, I looked at all the pictures his mom had up of him. Most of them were from when he was in high school. He was such a dork but hey, what can I say? He's my dork now and I love him! When he came out, he kind of caught me of guard by walking up behind me. He wrapped his arms around me and kind of rested his chin on my shoulder while I continued looking at the pictures. It was at that moment that I knew he was different. I knew I wanted to see him again to see where it would go. Little did I know 5 years later that we'd be married and he'd be the wonderful stepdad to Olivia and dad to Owen! He took me home afte that and walked me to the door. We said our good-byes and when he went in for the kiss, I cheeked him! A girl never kisses on the first date! We were pretty much inseperable after that!

2.Hmmm...that's a hard one! I'm going to consider our honerymoon as one very long date making it my second favorite! With me having Olivia already when I met Frank, we didn't really get a whole bunch of just "me and Frank" time. I mean we did but our honeymoon was the first time we'd gone away together, just us, for more than a night. We went on a cruise to Key West and Cozumel. In Key West, we were able to just walk the streets, shop, and leisurely eat! It was so nice. On the ship, we were able to sleep when we wanted and eat when we wanted. It was nice to just BE with Frank! When I'm with him, we don't necessarily have to do anything. We just like to BE together! In Cozumel, we went on excursion in MiniJeeps to go snorkeling! Although I despise snorkeling, I enjoyed the MiniJeep ride with Frank. It was so much fun taking in the beautiful scenery and laughing at our MiniJeep that scared the couple behind us evertime it backfired! It was so hard to come back!
