Husbandless Adventures

Nate, of course, is back. He has returned from his 5 day journey to the Yukon (Newkon as Jericho calls it). It was a great trip for him and he's considering going more often. What makes that previous statement alright with me is that I had fun too! He had planned to go in March or April and that trip had fallen through, but I had been a little excited and made social engagements for almost every night he was to be gone. Imagine his surprise to end up being wife-less for a few nights! But this time I only made a few plans. Only once did I do something on my own (besides my weekly three visits to the gym) and that was having company over. The one time I went for a big excursion, I took the babies.

A few weeks ago I was talking to my friend Lisa ( I adore her) and we planned to take the boys to White Rock. Little did we know it would turn out to be a gloriously beautiful day. We had a great time and the boys loved it. Jericho was especially fond of the ocean and enjoyed running in and out and splashing and laughing. It's so great to watch happy kids! I wish we could have stayed a lot more into the night, but there is a reason for this thing called bedtime. Most of my readers are my friends on Facebook so you would have seen MY White Rock pictures, but here are some that Lisa took:












Now my plan is to plan a lovely 5th Wedding Anniversary for Nate and I. I have some ideas, but I've decided I'm going to keep what I settle on a secret. If you have an idea, feel free to message me.

Tomorrow night we're headed out for the entire night. I will not need to get up in the middle of the night. I won't need to be putting boys back to bed at 6 am. I am looking forward to it, just a little!

Date night IS going to be fun - YAY!

And my anniversary isn't until July 25th, but you know I'm going to be milking it for the next few months.
