We were alone ((translates without children)) for 55 hours.
Yes I counted. It was so fun to take a little trip up to the place we will from now on call "Nooga" (Chattanooga, TN).
We rode in the car without anyone crying... okay I cried a little when we first left because I am not away from my children very often, and it was a step for me to go so far away for two nights in a row.
My totally awesome parents held down the fort (I am 1001x grateful).
We wanted it. We needed it, but still it was a little emotional for me.
No shame.
We slept in until 8:30 AM. We ate dinner on a boat.
We got lost a time or two.
We enjoyed amazing wedding festivities (including dancing hilariously to Footloose and a few other songs).

My dress was $12.97 and my shoes were $16.98. This is how we do it. |
Just the two of us.
What did you do this weekend?



<3 so glad you two had a wonderful time together. And I feel ya Mama, I've yet to leave Owen for more than 4 hours... my time will come :)
ReplyDeleteWe went to a wedding in Asheville last weekend, without littles. We needed it too. Glad you had fun. Love that dress.
ReplyDeleteYay for a weekend for just you two lovebirds! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like sooo much fun! It is so brave of you to leave your boys. That is one of the hardest things for a mom, I think. You did it and you all survived and now I feel am encouraged to do that same. :) Love the shoes and the price. Also, LOVE that you danced to Footloose. Doesn't get much better than that really.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a much needed break-- so happy you got it!
ReplyDeleteI love it for y'all that you got to have some quality time alone. By the way, you looked incredible in your new dress!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful for a little time "off" from full-time mommying! So glad you got to enjoy yourself and your hubby! :)
