So, this weekend, Topher and I spent 24 continuous hours together, enjoying adult conversations, eating DELICIOUS food and more DELICIOUS food, not cutting anyone children’s food, not changing diapers, sleep in, exercising, reading, watching TV, playing games, and mainly just being together. (Somehow though, I forgot to take pictures, I did haul our camera everywhere though!)
It was wonderful. Don’t get me wrong, I love my boys, but it is also nice to spend time with just their father.
We were looking forward to finishing up our time, by attending the temple, but were not able to, so instead we sat at the Christus.
It was beautiful. Beautiful to listen to the Sister Missionaries Testimonies, beautiful to sit and ponder life, and wonderful to look at the face of our Savior, and remember his love for me and my family.
Our kids partied with the Greene Crew, and Tucker and Truman have already asked when Belle and Ikey are coming to our house. It is nice to have places for our children to go, where they feel so comfortable and loved, so much so, that they didn’t even care when we came to pick them up.
Hurray for getting away, and hurray to coming home to happy children!
One reply on “A time to get away.”
That sounds great! With a 3 month old though, I think we have awhile to go until we’ll get a nice long break like that! Happy Anniversary!
