Happy Monday everyone! How was your weekend? Mine was so much fun! Don't forget to link-up to your weekend snapshots at the bottom of this post!

Date Night at Taita

This weekend started off with Josh and I having a date night at Taita. It's a seafood restaurant in Benson that is constantly listed as one of the best restaurants in Omaha. Taita Benson Omaha Nebraska Her Heartland Soul You may find it weird that Josh and I would go to a fish restaurant for dinner, as I don't like fish and he doesn't eat it. But Taita had veggie and chicken banh mis on their menu that we just had to try. They were incredible and we already can't wait to go back!

They were both so good!

Hanukkah Party

On Saturday evening Josh and I hosted our annual Hanukkah party! Which meant Saturday morning and afternoon was spent running around like crazy people trying to get everything done before the party. ;) We're a Christmas and Hanukkah family and I love getting to blend the two holidays like we do. While our friends get invited to lots of Christmas parties this time of year, we wanted to be different and host a Hanukkah party. This year we also decided to make it an ugly sweater theme! There were lots of decorations: Hanukkah Party Her Heartland Soul Hanukkah Party Her Heartland Soul Hanukkah Party Her Heartland Soul Hanukkah Party Her Heartland Soul And so much delicious food, catered from Whole Foods: Hanukkah Party Her Heartland Soul Hanukkah Party Her Heartland Soul Hanukkah Party Her Heartland Soul We somehow managed to pack all our guests into our apartment, since the upstairs party room was already reserved for the night.

Lazy Sunday

And then Sunday was spent in my pajamas drinking wine, eating leftovers and watching Christmas movies with Jordan. I didn't leave the house once and it was glorious.
