On Friday night, we ate a huge, yummy dinner at Golden Corral, and then went out for drinks with our friends Nicole and Danny, along with a couple guys Dustin works with. We were introduced to the back bar at Duck's. The front of the restaurant is kind of a fancy looking/small place which always seems a little awkward to drink at. Then we realize there is another bar, with different music and lower lighting in the back, with more of a sports bar feel. Dustin celebrated the fact that he was promoted to Corporal (so proud of him!) and it was nice to get out for a night.

I am an elementary school teacher and love my job! We are thrilled that after three years of making friends and memories in North Carolina, we are now back home in the Peach State!

Another Great Weekend
This weekend Dustin and I enjoyed a couple great date nights out, while also cleaning up our apartment and doing some grocery shopping.
On Friday night, we ate a huge, yummy dinner at Golden Corral, and then went out for drinks with our friends Nicole and Danny, along with a couple guys Dustin works with. We were introduced to the back bar at Duck's. The front of the restaurant is kind of a fancy looking/small place which always seems a little awkward to drink at.

Dustin celebrated the fact that he was promoted to Corporal (so proud of him!) and it was nice to get out for a night.
On Saturday, Dustin treated me to some yummy Bojangles egg and bacon biscuit in bed, and we lounged around most of the day. Nicole and Danny invited us out for a double date at Duplin Winery in Rose Hill. It was such a fun night! We got a little tour of the winery, tasted 10 different kinds of wine with crackers, cheese, and a little scoring sheet to keep track. Then we had a 3-course dinner with a comedy show afterwards. We ended up spending $95 between the tickets and extra wine during dinner (the first glass was complimentary). The night was so much fun, and I definitely want to take my mom out here when she comes to visit us later this spring. We picked up some Pink Magnolia wine and a slushie mix they sell for delicious pink cosmo spritzers...mmm! I can't wait to mix some of those up to enjoy poolside this summer. A little-known fact is that the winery offers 10% off wine sales to any military members, so we walked away with our drink mix and two bottles of wine for less than $25. Not a bad deal, I think!
