OUR GREAT ESCAPE


Love my kids tons, but do you not agree that you just need a break every once and awhile? Aces and I took off to Utah this weekend for a little R&R. Grandma/Grandpa W. and Aunt Bubba took over the kids on Friday and Saturday so we could enjoy our great escape.
We had a lot of fun. We went to Rodizio Grill for dinner on Friday night. Any of you who know Aces well will know that that place was designed just for him! All you can eat meat??!! And they bring it to you whenever you want??!! Who could ask for anything more! I think he sang a particular song..."I'm in heaven!" We then spent the evening lounging in a hotel room reading books! To some, that may not sound exciting, but it was just what the doctor ordered! And the best part...we had a craving for some ice cream at about 10:00 and we were BOTH able to go! Wow!
Saturday was a fun filled day riding rides and laughing at crazy people at Lagoon. I think my body isn't meant for too many roller coasters any more. I had the worst headache afterwards and even got near blacking out while riding on the Colossus. Who knew? We took a break for a couple of hours to have lunch and go see the Harry Potter movie. Can I just say, HOW DISAPPOINTING!!! I guess my expectations were too high.
By the end of the night, we were ready to get back to reality. It was nice to run away to help regain that sense of appreciation for the kids and the simple way things run in our life.
Thanks to the fam for all their help and for letting us slip away!!!
