getaway

We hopped over the mountains for a little weekend getaway.

There was a very important birthday to attend. My brother's twin daughters turned one! I felt as if he and my sister-in-law were the ones who deserved cake and presents. Job well done. I cannot imagine having three under 3.

Good thing they're so cute!

I was soaking up some time with my family.  Something just breathes a sigh of comfort and familiarity in my heart when I get near these guys (dad and brother). They're my home and there's not place like it.

We also threw in a night at The Great Wolf Lodge. We pampered ourselves with spa treatments, ice cream, and a whole lotta watersliding. I promise Ian had fun too...he was just taking in all of the sights and sounds when we snapped this picture. We did lots of swimming. Lots. And now, after spending that much time in my bathingsuit...I'm more motivated than ever to get back to work (i.e. the gym).  Yikes. Summer will be here before I know it!

The ride home was very quiet. Good change of scenery, lots of good laughs. Good getaway. Now to getingback...
