OK I know you are wondering what these pictures are all about right. Well this weekend David and I got the chance to escape overnight. Thanks to my wonderful mom who is always so willing to keep our kids. :) We booked a room at the INN at Montgomery Bell State Park where the view is beautiful. We went out Friday looking for somewhere to eat dinner and on our way we passed a drive in movie so naturally not having one where we live we were very excited. They were showing Batman the Dark Knight. I wasn't so sure I cared about seeing Batman but it was more that it was a drive in. We actually ended up enjoying the movie. It was so nice outside it was perfect weather for a drive in movie. The next day we had breakfast at the inn checked out the pool, and the hot tub and the scene which is so pretty.
They also have paddle boats, john boats, and canoes for rental so we rented a paddle boat.
That is why there are pictures of our feet. It was such a great time for us. You forget how different kids make your relationship. I came home and told my mom we were going to do this every weekend, her reply "you better get a new babysitter" Bella had here up every 2 hours. Now she See's what I go through every night. :) I recommend that if you have kids and you have the opportunity to get away like that its great for your marriage.
WE plan on hopefully getting to do this again next month for our 8th wedding anniversary. We may have to find another babysitter but hopefully our good gran gran will help us out again. :)

good for you! it really is important to get away occasionally. it's hard to remember sometimes that we were "couples" before we became "parents" and when the kids move out one day, it'll be just us again... hopefully with a still-growing, close relationship. they say that's the best gift you can give your kids...a strong marriage. and don't worry, i'm sure a month will be plenty of time for joyce to recover. here's to more date nights!!!
that is awesome!! see the sad part is..our nana and grandmom live far far away! so enjoy this time when u can!! looks like you had a great time.
Oh, so fun! It looked like you all had a great time. And I am sure the kids had so much fun with Joyce, they didn't even have a chance to miss you! :o)
