Lunch out and laptops

Today was Ben's work christmas lunch but what was even better was that he hasd been given the whole day off! We dropped the kids of at a friends house at 11 and jetted off to the Old Bridge Hotel in Godmanchester. It was posh posh posh inside, or at least I thought so when compared to the last place I went out to dinner - Frankie and Benny's!! They gave all the women a Willow Tree angel each - nice for not having to do anything! Ben did an icebreaker which was actually quite fun and then there was a quiz - we came 2nd and won £7 each! Woo hoo! I'm going to try not to spend it all at once... ha ha ha! Then onto the best part - the food!! It was delicious! I would recommend it to anyone for a great meal out. Maybe I'll make Ben take me there again since we missed out on my birthday meal. One of the other reasons the day was so great was that we were child free - I don't think we have been out for that long together with adult company in years. Crazy. The girls were having a great time too and almost looked sad to come home when we picked them up at 3.
Since Eliza had only had a 25minute nap in the morning as opposed to her 1 1/2 nap she usually has after lunch, we put the kids to bed early so we could play with.....our new laptop!! We only ordered it yesterday. It's nice to have a laptop to call our own again! Now all we have to do is somehow get all our pictures off the busted one...
