Late Great Anniversary Date

Friday afternoon Jared called me from work and told me I had to be ready so that we could be in Billings by 6:30. I really had no idea what his plan was and was kind of excited about a real surprise date. After we dropped the boys of with some friends Jared asked what I wanted for dessert. We decided to get cheesecake at Barnes and Noble. When we were newlyweds in Missoula we went there quite often just to browse around and have a little treat. After eating we got in the car and Jared handed me 2 tickets to the Nylons concert. The Nylons are an acapella group from Canada that have been around for about 30 years. The music was really good and it reminded me of when we were at Ricks and there were concerts like that all the time. Jared and I both really like acapella music, and they even sang Silhoutettes which is the song that inspired the name of the group Jared used to sing with in high school. They sang from 7:30 until almost 10:15. I was starting to worry about how late it was getting for the boys, but it sure was nice to evening doing something out of the ordinary. Thanks to the Footes for watching our boys, and to Jared for the surprise!
