Saturday date night at Stellas

Erik and I had a very busy Saturday this past weekend. The day started off with Erik going on a bike ride with his friend Tom. Then we packed the kids up and headed to Blaine to see Mom & Dad's new giant camper. It was really nice! The kids then stayed at my parents for the day and over night. Yippee! Erik and I went out to lunch, and then started the long process of appliance shopping. We spent about 3 hours at Sears learning about a million different appliances and figuring out which ones were the best for us to buy. We also had to compare it to the best time to buy. So we ended up buying a new Fridge that will be delivered this weekend, and then mid August we will go back to buy the other ones we picked out because of a sale they will have then. I can't wait to have them all in my kitchen!!!

We then went home to relax before getting ready for a date. We headed out around 6:30 pm and went to the Uptown area. After parking, we walked around to try and figure out where to eat. We noticed that Stellas was very busy and there was some water show down on the street next to it. So Stellas it was! Bring on the fish and sea food! Even though there were 16 parties ahead of us, we were determined to sit up on the patio/roof top. So we waited.... and waited.... and waited.... and had a beer... and a beer... and a beer.... till finally they called our name over an hour later. Wow! Appetizers were necessary after the beer. But our food came pretty fast, and it was enjoyable chatting and people watching. So we didn't mind a bit!

After dinner we walked around for a while, popped into a book store, and went back to the wake boarding show in the street by Stellas. We hung out there for about 15 more minutes, before deciding to head home.

It was a good night! Glad we went out!

Here is the side of Stellas - you can see the roof top seating along the railing.


Even though it is July, I'm wearing jeans and had a jacket with me. Weird. But for most of the evening it was pretty nice!

Here is Erik in his new shirt and cute hat!

Can you say gut rot? Both Erik and I ordered the Walleye, and when it arrived we totally laughed at the giant portions. We could have easily shared one plate. Live and learn, I guess. It was fairly tasty, but I would recommend you eat something else.

Here is the show that was happening down below. This is the modified bike that was pulling a rope with a dude at the end on a wake board. It was not that great of a show, but by all the gawkers, you wouldn't know that.

This is the ramp and water that they ended up in.
