Date Night -- Old Mill and Cantus!

On Saturday, Kyle surprised me with a perfect date night! Each time we try to do something different , in a new area of town and it is just so fun.

We had dinner reservations at The Old Mill Restaurant in Acworth, a little north of our house. It was such a cool place, having only been restored 4 years ago into this amazing building. Click here to see the transformation! The restaurant is about 10 feet max from the train tracks so it was really cool to feel the floor shake as the trains went by. (We have grown to really like the sound of trains as we live so close to the tracks in Marietta)

The inside was so neat, with the high ceiling, old brick and steel beams. This picture is a little blurry, but you can still see how cool it is!
The food was amazing too. We had stuffed mushrooms with crab and shrimp, salads, steak (me) and tuna (kyle)! They were huge portions so we both had left overs that we ate later on in the weekend.

We then had an 8:00 show that we rushed off to on the campus of Kennesaw State University. We had tickets to see Cantus, a male acapella group from Minneapolis. They were all so talented with such control over their voices. I forgot so many times that they had no instruments and instead were just using their voices to make the sounds. Our favorite song they did was called "Your my little potato", sung by my favorite singer out of the group Paul.
We had such an amazing time. Kyle planned a wonderful date night, can't wait for our next one! Thank you sweetie :)
