Surprise!
We started the day off with some cross-country skiing at a park near our house. It was a gorgeous sunny day and the temperature was just perfect for spending some time outside. Actually, we got quite heated because cross-country skiing is hard work. What a great work out! We were both very tired and sore afterwards. We were able to ski through the woods & trails and it was so peaceful and nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. I'm much more accustomed to downhill skiing so this was really a different experience. It made me miss all the years we spent in Colorado skiing as a family! It was so nice to spend some time outdoors too. The best part was, we borrowed the skiis from my Dad so it was entirely free!
Next we headed to the movie theatre to see Dear John. It was a nice change of pace because skiing wore us out. After the movie we headed to one of our favorite date spots, cupcake. They are a cute little shop in St. Paul that makes (dozens) of different kinds of cupcakes fresh each day. I picked up some last week for my sister's birthday. They are soooo delicious, and it's fun to pop in because you never know which cupcakes will be available that day. They also have a cafe menu that has a lot of organic choices on it. They make soups and breads from scratch & serve breakfast all day. I recommend the Apple brie sandwhich, it's to die for! It's an adorable little place and if you are looking to try something new, check it out! 
After cupcake we were planning on making it to uptown to celebrate a friends birthday, but we made a pitstop first in Minneapolis to see Keith & Bobby's new apartment. It was so fun to see these guys and hang out with them for a few hours. They ended up joining us in uptown too, which was really fun. It was also fun to see my friend Megan and Keri and celebrate with them. We are so blessed with wonderful friends.
Date day was a big success! On Saturday we also signed up to run a 7k race in March with Keith and are pretty excited {jay} and nervous {me} about it! We are starting to train this week. We've been working out almost everyday for the past 4 weeks, but have not run any long distances. I am really excited about the challenge though and it will be good motivation for continuing to keep me working out. If anyone wants to join us, let me know! It's only about 4 miles long and it would be fun to have friends to run with!
