Anniversary getaway

Mark and I just celebrated our seventh anniversary. Mark planned a wonderful overnight getaway. There are two genuine blessings I experienced through this. Number one, I have an incredibly thoughtful husband who planned the whole entire getaway around things that I love.
Second blessing, we have amazing, awesome friends who are willing to stay with our kids while we do something like this. Thank you, Godshalls and Smiths!!! You guys are awesome.

So around 3 in the afternoon Mark and I left and headed to the mall. We never get to shop in peace and Mark knows that I do enjoy when he shops with me. So we spent a little time at the Gap and found some good stuff. We then headed to check into our hotel. It was kind of funny doing an overnight in our own town, but also really fun. We stayed at this funky, chic downtown hotel called 21c. www.21cmuseumhotel.com It as an art gallery, posh little bar and restaurant and a hotel.

So we walked into the lobby of the hotel and there was some strange art. I looked over to the right and there is this little sitting area with a plasma TV. It all a part of this art display but really funky. There was this totally naked woman standing in her living room with her hands on hips talking about women empowerment. The stranger thing was that there was a young girl about 8 watching the video. I thought it was so weird. Mark thought it was art. :)

We then headed to dinner at Seviche on Bardstown. We sat outside (my favorite) and had the best meal since we have moved down here. The sea bass was the most delicious buttery yet crispy thing ever. We then went to see Julie and Julia. Not something Mark would have chosen but he insisted. It was the perfect evening.

At 10 AM I shot out of bed. The hotel had curtains that seriously blocked the sun. I thought it was 7 AM. I dialed up Rachel to check on the kids. I felt so bad that we had slept in. I thought we would be home by then. She was so glad that I had not called before then. She was hoping that I would sleep in. So awesome! Rachel, if you read this, you are wonderful!

We then ate a yummy breakfast outside at the North End Cafe. We arrived home and the boys were so happy to see us. I was happy to see them but I had enjoyed my time immensely. Thank you, Mark! You are a wonderful husband....much more than I deserve.
