This weekend was an early birthday present from DH: A weekend away without kids! A HUGE, GIGANTIC THANKS TO MY SISTER for taking them! Six kids for a weekend is a lot and they were so thoughtful, even bringing C down for his basketball game, even though they live 1/2 hour away!
Since we didn't have a lot of time, we ended up staying in a nice, 4-star hotel in a nearby city. We actually didn't do a ton. We did, however,- workout together without worrying about kids.
- went to the local Museum of Art and actually took our time without rushing with the kids.
- ate out and actually got to talk to each other (doesn't usually happen with three kids demanding our time).
- relaxed without worrying or feeling guilty (Hey! We were away!) about clinic-stuff, house-stuff, kid-stuff, yard-stuff, church-stuff, etc. That was so nice.
- talked and talked.
It was one of the best weekends ever! I am certain that if my sister is up to it, we will be doing this again! :)
~Thanks, DH, love ya!~

How wonderful! It is really good to have those breaks, with tons of uninterrupted quality time for each other. I'm so glad you got to do that. Happy Early Birthday!
Hooray for you guys!! We've never done that. Maybe one of these days!!
yeah! I's so nice to have a few days away together!!
I'll keep your kids if you want to go again :)
I'm so glad you got to get away!
It sounds like so much fun!
I can't believe how much you two have not changed over the years! You both look fabulous, glad you had a chance to get away sans kids.
