Amazing Weekend

R and I got a romantic night away from the kids in northern MI from Saturday to Sunday. It was wonderful and we had such a great time. We actually went up north for a wedding, my friend A, my teaching partner from FL. She is actually from MI and has since moved from FL to MD. It was an outdoor wedding right near the water and the weather couldn't have turned out better. It was rainy and nasty down by where we lived but as we drove north the sky became blue and gorgeous.

We dropped the kiddos off at my parent's house which was half way and it was my first night away from Baby M. I was not worried or sad in the least, I was ready for a night away! R has been on interviews and at conferences a couple times so he's gotten to enjoy some baby free nights. I booked a very, very cheap room because I know we don't have any money. I just couldn't miss this wedding though, my friend would have been devastated. Our room turned out being much lower than what I had originally booked it for so we ended up getting a brand new, totally remodeled room for only $44. It was awesome!

We attended the wedding and reception and were in bed by 11:30pm. The next morning we slept in until 9 am!!!!!!!!!!!! R and I got up and went running along the water and through down town, came back and showered and then went for coffee. We wandered around down town after reading and paper and drinking our coffee outside and then got lunch on our way out of town. It was utter and complete heaven. We SO needed that 24 hours for us and to enjoy ourselves. It's actually probably going to be considered our early anniversary gift.

R got a second phone interview for the same place that he interviewed for on Friday morning, let's hope this is it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
