It started out with a date to State Street to use our gift card from St. John's Gala.
We started out with pizza and beer at Tutto Pizza on State.
We had never been there before and not so sure we would go back.
The seating was great, outside on a beautiful night, the service was very good, and the cheesecake dessert was to die for, but the pizza itself was not all that tasty.
Very cheesy, not much tomato, tasteless sausage all on a crispy crust. The crust was my favorite part of the pizza.
Here are a few photos from the dinner
After dinner, we walked up to the capitol.
John wanted me to take that peace sign off that statue. Some protestors had put it there, but I wanted no part of that idea.
Finally, it was time for our comedy club experience.
Our admission was free with our coupon, the only requirement was to buy two drinks per person during the show. When we saw the drink menu, that was going to be difficult, there were so many yummy choices.
We finally decided on a flirtini for me and a mantini for John.
Great choices by the way.
The first two comedians were good and actually laughed, but the headliner was not so funny, at least to us.
Lots of poop and fart jokes and, let's face it, there are only so many funny things you can say about poop and farts.
All in all, it was a very nice date night.
On Saturday we took my mom and headed up to Oshkosh to watch Tizita in her dance recital.
John, was not too thrilled about this, he ranks dance right up there with figure skating, but because it was Tizita, of course he would attend and he WOULD enjoy it!
We got to watch her do
Ballet
Tap
and jazz.
The two and a half hours went very quickly and the dancers were all really very good.
Not quite Dance Mom quality, but close.
At the end, all the dancers came out and sang, "God Bless the USA."
It was very moving and a great way to end the recital.
We took Tiz out for a treat after the performance.
When we got back to Watertown, we stopped for dinner at Bismark's.
Kev and Vikki met us for a few beers.
Great day and great way to end it.
Sunday was our church picnic.
The weather was perfect.
After eating lunch at the picnic, John and I took off on the Lake Country Bike Trail for a 15 mile ride.
I really like this trail, all paved, easy pedaling, and scenic.
It was definitely another great weekend.
Some memorable quotes from this weekend that I do not want to forget:
My mom to me, "Do you remember where you were on D day?"
and
Kev to me as we were leaving Bismark's:
"Watch out, it's glare ice out there."
