To new adventures!

Eight years ago (during the pre-kid era after we got married), Hubby & I were planning a week long trip to a cabin in the Smoky Mountains. The six months later he was laid off & we decided to postpone the trip for a couple of years. Two years later & one IVF cycle later, we were pregnant with our first child. Two additional IVF cycles & four & a half years later we had our second child. When you have one or more kids, it's hard to find the time & money to take a vacation alone with your spouse. We managed to get a weekend away alone before our daughter was born which helped us really reconnect.

Before Christmas, we discovered we earned two free airplane tickets. Knowing we hadn't had much time alone or even together during the past few months, we started to plan a trip & considering a cruise (since airfare wasn't a worry & babysitting was arranged). Since then some events have transpired & we have decided to put the cruise on hold for another time. Instead we're considering a couple possibilities including a day trip to the Grand Canyon with a laid back trip to Vegas. Either way, I'm looking forward to spending 'adult time' with Hubby!
