Such a great day :)

Yesterday was just a great day.  I started out the day by being able to sleep in, which is a rare thing when you have kids.  Then I was able to go to an awesome zumba class at the gym.  I really am loving zumba!  I'm so glad my sister-in-law introduced me to it :)  The instructor yesterday was a guy, which I don't think is super common for zumba teachers, but he is so good!  He has such a great energy & totally gets into it which makes me feel less like a dork :)  Plus, all those endorphins really help my mood for the rest of the day :)
Last night Josh & I were able to go on a date, too.  I love being able to go out with just my husband.  We went to see Battle LA & it was pretty good.  If you like war/action movies, you'll definitely like this one.  I hadn't heard much about it before we saw it but I was happy with it.  Afterwards we went to the Macaroni Grill.  I always hesitate a little bit to get something new at a restaurant when I know I like certain things.  I got what I normally get, which is always good, but Josh got something new.  It was a chicken pasta dish & it was AMAZING!  I normally don't like chicken unless it's in something because I think it's usually somewhat bland & dry.  This chicken was unlike any other I've ever had...it was so juicy & flavorful!  Yum.  It's food like that that makes me really not care that I have a few extra unwanted pounds on me.  (It's good to have experiences like that for me because it loosens me up when I get too worried about my weight.)  :)  So if you go to the Macaroni Grill any time soon, get the bruschetta appetizer, the chicken scallopine, & the chocolate cake :)
The other thing that just made the day that much better was that we found out how much we're getting back for our tax return.  I was thinking we'd probably get about the same amount back as we did last year but we're getting DOUBLE that amount!  I was really surprised but super excited when I found that out :) 
Yay for good days :)
