Sunday night Dan and I went to the mountains for a short stay to celebrate our FIVE year anniversary. ( Just need to add a HUGE thank you to my mother in law for staying with the girls while we were gone!!) I realize five years isn't a lifetime or even that long compared to some of you married folks out there, but for us it was a milestone. I'd venture to say quite a bit marriages end before they hit the five year marker so it's kind of a big deal (at least to us it was). It was such a great trip for us. We never leave the girls with anyone for an overnighter, so we were due for some alone time. And it was wonderful! We had a great drive there, checked into our sweet little room, took a walk through downtown blowing rock, and dinner at Bistro Roca which was oh so yummy! Surprisingly we went to bed fairly early and got up pretty early too. That's the result of having two little early risers who've gotten our bodies in the routine of waking up at the crack of dawn even if we have the rare opportunity to sleep in. One of the many joys of parenthood :) Monday morning we have a good breakfast, took a walk through blowing rock again, and then made our way to the outlets. I will say they were less than impressing which says a lot considering I could go shopping just about anywhere anytime. We wanted to be back before it got too late so we took a short drive through the parkway (which was beautiful)! Last stop was at Storie Street Grille for lunch before heading home. Here are a few pics from our trip!
