Call me Picasso

What a great day!! Fun filled, laugh fest!! Started the day out by getting some errands done on my day off. Then, after all that hard work, I came home and took a well deserved nap. After I was all refreshed and beautiful, my boyfriend picked me up for our exciting date. We were gonna go to a painting class at Michael's, but first we had to eat! I didn't know where Ben was driving to, so about halfway there, I asked where we were gonna grab dinner. Ben said Willowgate, which is his favorite Chinese place. I was not in the mood for Chinese food, but didn't want to burst his bubble, so I did what any good girlfriend does. I kept my big mouth shut. On the way, he shared a fun fact with me and we laughed. So, we get to Willowgate and there is one other car in the lot. We park, and I remark that the open sign isn't lit. Ben says "Oh, I don't think I've ever seen it on". We make our way to the door, Ben tries to open the door, and- locked. I look at him and he looks at me. He gives me the "Mary" face.... you know which one I'm talking about. We make our way back to the Truck. He is visibly upset and I try to stifle my laughter. I turn to Ben and say, "Wanna hear another fun fact? Apparently, God DOES answer prayers". He couldn't help but laugh. Cuz frankly, I'm hilarious. We ate at Old Chicago. 

So on to painting! It was a lesson in acrylic basics. It was the instructors first night teaching and we all kind of did our own thing with her helping us along if we had questions. It was enjoyable to try a new medium, as I am more accustomed to watercolors. It was fun trying similar techniques used in watercolor and applying it to this new medium. It was helpful to have the instructor there to help when I got hung up. All in all we had a great time!! It was so much fun and Ben and I enjoyed trying something new as a couple!! Just made us fall even more in love with each other because we are willing to try new activities. I'm excited to see what other adventures we will have together.
