Date Night in Downtown Riverside

Hello sweet people. Hope your all having a wonderful day! Are you all ready for Christmas? So excited, I love the Christmas spirit. The pretty lights, the fellowship and of course the food!
But most of all the celebration of our sweet Jesus. Of course we all know that even though He wasn't born in December, this is when we celebrate HIS birth so lets not forget that it's all about HIM. It should always be about HIM!
A few days ago my hubby decided to take me to Downtown Riverside to go see all the pretty lights down there. I love the way they decorate The Mission Inn Hotel. We go every year and I just love walking around, going in the shops and seeing all the pretty lights.
He also made a reservation over at Mario's Place. It's an excellent Italian Restaurant. We so wanted to go last year because we've heard how delicious it is but they had no more reservations.
Well this year we didn't care how late we would have to wait. They had an 8:30 pm and we took it, got a babysitter and off we went. It was so nice. The ambiance was really nice and from where we sat we were able to see the beautiful Christmas lights so that was pretty neat.
The food was AMAZING. We had some pesto basil pizza, risotto, lamb and steak. Here are a few pictures of that wonderful night. God bless you all and I pray you all have a very Merry Christmas!

Great pics! I have been taking my little one to the Mission Inn every year since she was born! It's a drive for us, but worth it to see the look on her face!! :) I will have to check out Marios next time we are there - - I haven't heard of it before.
Thanks for the tip! Happy New Year (:
