Boiler Up!

Bistro 501

This weekend we were able to get away and go on an actual date, which hasn't happened in a while, due to moving, etc. We went to Lafayette, so Maria could stay with grandparents while we went out. We ate at Bistro 501, it was excellent. It is a French cuisine restaurant. We both had a fish dish, mine was so wonderful...Pecan Crusted Trout, yummy. It had a great sauce on it that made it almost taste like dessert! Larry had the Halibut special, which he enjoyed. After dinner we just walked around downtown; since the weather was so nice, had a sweet treat at a chocolate shop, and then headed home. We should have taken a picture since it has been so long since we went out, but oops, too late.

We were also in Lafayette because on Saturday we met up with some friends and went to the Purdue/N. Colorado game. It was a sunny day, and we got a bit too much sun, but otherwise we had fun. These were friends from the church back in Fort Wayne that Larry served at. We were in a small group Bible study with them. Three couples came, although on of the husbands was a wee bit busy during the game being one of the officials for the game, (that's how we all got the free tickets!..Thanks Brian!). We enjoyed seeing them and catching up on their lives.

look closely, our friend is the referee with the striped shirt on, ;) No seriously he has on a black hat and he is in the center of the picture.

We have plenty to praise God for; good friends who still keep in touch after three years being gone.
