yesterday was our 5 year anniversary and now no one can watch the kids for us so we can go out this weekend :( DH suggested we just take the kids, but that kinda defeats the purpose, we can't go to a nice restuarant with kids, heck we can't even talk to each other barely with the kids there. This sucks :(

    How old are the kids? Can you put them to bed early, get dressed up and have a dessert date at your place? Wine, cheese, strawberrys, candles.

    that is a bummer! 5 years is a big deal, I am sure you guys can find a way to celebrate, even if you have to postpone a nice dinner a day or 2 until someone can babysit

    congrats on the 5 years!:drinker: :drinker:

    Darn kids! JK - between my husband and myself, we have 6!! Not all at home though and the ones that are here are grown. So sorry to hear your dilemma. I agree - it does suck. Congratulations on your anniversary, though. BE PROUD of another year - it's a rare thing (unfortunately) in our society for marriages to last at all. And what a great thing for your kids to have their mom and dad in the same house! I'm hear to tell ya' though... There is life after kids! It's a coming... Just be patient! Maybe this year your kids can be a part of the celebration of your marriage - but only as a last resort! Again... CONGRATULATIONS ON A WONDERFUL THING! God Bless your family! :flowerforyou:

    Plan a late romantic dinner at home for after you put them to bed.

    Get used to it. Other than my honeymoon, I haven't have a vacation alone with my wife since 1992.
