Several months back Philip got a gift certificate to The Palm for playing in a charity golf tournament. It was set to expire so we used it as an opportunity to go to a fine family dinner.
We have lots to celebrate....family, life, love and most importantly that week health. It had been a rough week as far as all of our health goes. We were all sick for at least 2 days and Asher carried a 101-103+ fever for 7 days straight.
We enjoyed lobster for 2...well really 3, but we didn't have to pay for Asher.
From the minute we walked in at 5:40 pm (yes we figured go early not to disrupt the romantic couples enjoying fine dining after 7 pm) he was charming the wait staff. The night before they started a new trend by offering crayons and paper to the kids so Asher was the first kid to enjoy it. Thankfully we also brought the ipad with toy story on it so he say quietly (after a lil fit about getting out of the booster seat) and watched toy story while he ate.
Oh and he really only ate Broccoli the entire dinner. An entire head of broccoli.
And bread. Strangely lobster wasnt his thing...even though he loves fish. It must be that whole, "Mom, I have been sick, I have no appetite")
We were home by 7 pm and our bellies were oh so full. It was quite a lovely evening all of us together enjoying some good ole fine Charlotte dining at a reasonable price!
That food looks incredible Renee!
