Our Weekend Away

Whit is such a sweetheart and planned a weekend getaway for my birthday!  Friday night his sister Katie came over and watched our kiddos and put them to bed.  Then his other sister Linsey came over and spent the night with them and watched them all day Saturday.  They were all so sweet to help out and we had such a great time having a break from it all.  We love our kids, but I really needed a full night's sleep!!!

 So my aunt let us use her friends and family rate, and we stayed at the Marriott downtown.  We enjoyed being on the 11th floor and getting a really good view of downtown and the ice skating rink at the Gallivan Plaza.  Oh, and before we checked in to the hotel we went to the Temple and then out to dinner :)

 We really enjoyed sleeping in!  I didn't get out of bed until 9:30 :)  We got all dressed to go cross country skiing.  So we checked out of the hotel, went to get breakfast, and by the time we were on the road it was noon and raining and we were both starting to get sick so we decided to skip on the skiing.  We ended up going to RC Wiley and getting our new couch!  We are so excited for that--we've been looking at it for months now.  After that we decided to hit a movie--Jack Ryan, Shadow Recruit.  Pretty intense!

Poor Whit was so hot in his skiing clothes.  He pulled up his pants for the movie :)  Doesn't he look thrilled to be there?  :)  After the movie we finally went home so we could feed the kids dinner and put them to bed!  :)  It was such a fun weekend and we loved being able to hang out and do whatever we felt like doing.  What freedom.  But we did miss the kids and it was fun to come home and see their cute smiling faces :)
