Seriously the best vacation ever. Flights were easy peasy. Hotel was a dream. We ate and drank and slept and spaed. We shopped in cute towns and held hands and drank lots of coffee and even more wine. And it occurred to me, about half way through the trip, that Doug is the only person in the world that I could spend four days with and not once want to kill. Or even get annoyed with. Or even say a cross word to. The vacation was in one word, perfection.
How could you feel anything but happy in this setting?
It felt in many ways like a second honeymoon. The setting was luxurious and lush and dreamy. And man do I love my husband. I recommend to anyone, who can do it, go away without your child. Even if it is for a night. You, your marriage, and your life will be better for it.
We came home to drama of the largest order, yet somehow, I have managed to stay relaxed and calm. Which is unlike me. I'm hoping it lasts, at least through the week. And why is it so cold in DC? I want to go back to California. (Also, I forgot my best friends' birthday. I suck. Happy Birthday Shana.)
Also: This. I know there is drama surronding it and I'm sorry for all those who didn't get in. But I for one I'm thrilled to say I'M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD.
Shhhh…don't tell Michael. It is going to be his 6th birthday present.

sounds like a lovely time. Are you going to be in Disney around b’day time? We’re headed there for Owen’s birthday too.
We will be happy to have Michael stay with us again. We had a great time with him and he was perfect. Love, Mom
Yay for second-honeymoon-style vacations! It sounds amazing.
I’m so glad you had a great time! Where did you eat? Did any of the suggestions work out or were they duds?
Now that sounds fabulous! What a nice weekend away.
(PS- Looks like we are MOVING to your vacation spot. Crazy, huh?)
Wait… where were you in CA? You know, I live in the San Francisco bay area. And the Cake Boss was just here too because my friend went to see him. Were you here at the same time? Now I’m confused.
Oh how exciting. That’s on my list for next year hopefully. Am trying for Morgan’s tenth birthday.
I am so glad you guys had a great trip. Hope the drama stuff is okay.
So happy that you had such a wonderful trip.
And yippee on the Disney. Wish I was going!
Yay! See you in March!
