Dave and I recently returned from a well deserved and very much needed 5 days away. We spent the first day cleaning house and going out to brunch. Once everything was clean and we were all packed up we headed to our cabin in the RRG. We rented Beary Secluded a two bedroom cabin with a hot tub, and it was perfect. We spent the 5 days hiking, rock climbing, kayaking, and relaxing. We enjoyed coffee and cocktails multiple times a day in the hot tub, delicious food at Miguel's pizza, and Rock House Café. We met up with friends one day and kayaked and visited a trail and overlook that I had never been too. We finished season five of Game of Throwns, watched a climbing documentary and just enjoyed each others company.
We talked a lot, not always about things of importance but we actually talked to each other instead of at each other. To often with the kids and our busy lives it feels as if we are just going through the motions of each day and never really acknowledge each other or are actually present for the small moments of time that really matter. On this trip we decided that we definitely need to make our relationship a priority so we have decided to take one evening during each week and let Sara keep the kids and put them to bed for us.
Returning home the boys were excited to see us both, but what I think I was most surprised by was how happy Jett was to see Dave. Jett is usually glued to me but I think he is really starting to realize how fun his Daddy is. Brody of course had so many stories and loved telling me about all the adventures they had with Nana and Clark and Grandma.
