PROMSI

Remember how our Valentine's date got canceled due to inclement weather? That's okay if you don't, but that happened. Anyway, I was in charge of planning us a valentine's date this year and I was having a hard time finding  the right activity for us until a I got an email from OMSI (our science museum here in Oregon) announcing this Promsi event. Basically it is an activity for adults, where  you can pretend its Prom and dress up and there are all sorts of events throughout the museum. There were laser shows in the planetarium, the newlywed game going on somewhere, there were aerial dancers, different science demonstrations, lots of dancing and music, some minute to win it games, lots of vendors giving out samples and of course we got to enjoy the whole museum, which included a new Pixar exhibit that wasn't open when the event was originally scheduled and it was a pretty fascinating exhibit. (I get to go back with Miles for a field trip soon!) Anyway, Max and I went to Prom together twice in high school so it was kind of fun to do a prom themed event. We loved it!

Anyway, I'm totally getting ahead of myself. We ended up getting a babysitter for 5 hours so we started our date with going out to dinner at a Thai restaurant which was amazing. Dating is the best, and we had a great babysitter that we felt comfortable feeding our children and putting them to bed and our boys were thrilled to have her. I was worried about Edwin because he's a little clingy but as soon as Carissa came over, Edwin acted excited to see her, then I remember that she is one of his nursery teachers at church, ha, I totally forgot about that. Anywho...back to our date...

OMSI!

 

Getting ready for the Beyonce laser show. HAHA!

It was equally fun and hilarious!

We got our photo taken, awkward pose and all. I'm going to see if I can pull up our old prom photos real quick...

Okay, without pulling out the hard drive I got this low quality copy of our second prom, when it was Max's s senior year and he was Prom king and I was already graduated and a bus driver and I went to his Prom and there were people that rode my bus there, weird, but amazing!

Anyway, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and our time together. We loved the Pixar exhibit. 

We enjoyed some dancing but also realized we didn't really know how to dance. ha! And back to more science...

Anyway, it was a perfect date for us. A break from the kids is always great and reliving our teenage days is sometimes fun!
