Jake and I went away together for the first time since bringing little ones into our lives. It was a long overdue and much needed extended weekend. The kids didn't even miss us with all the fun they had with Aunt Yeazy (Aunt Lindsay in non-cave-man talk) and Unca Derwed (Uncle Jared).
Jake got to golf at this beautiful course
I slept in, laid out at the pool (it was over 80 degrees in Palm Springs!), and got my toenails done. We went to movies, played mini-golf, went shopping, ate out for every meal witout asking for the check at the same time as the food... Ah.... It was heaven!
We also rode the Palm Springs tram which takes you up to the 8,000 plus feet above sea level in a matter of eleven minutes. It was beautiful at the top.
And there were some fantastic Asain tourist teenagers taking fantastic photos of themselves in all kinds of poses. We attempted to imitate but not sure ours are as glamorous as theirs. We'll have to work on it...
At any rate - I highly recommend if you have children at home, leave them (hopefully you have an Aunt Lindsay and Uncle Jared handy) and just go enjoy a little time away. It was nice to see the kids when we got home but we're already ready to go again. :) Thanks honey for a fantastic weekend!
looks great! i'm jealous you have an aunt lindsay and uncle jared close and handy. maybe i should send away for them so we can go! :) (or an aunt mandy - yeah. i'd take one of those! :))

Lucky you! We had a trip last year without the kids and it was AWESOME! I love my kids, but adult vacations are the best! How about coming this way next time?? It's been wayyy to long!
