4 Years


On June 24 Tommy and I celebrated our 4 year wedding anniversary! We have always wanted to take a "true vacation", meaning just the two of us...so we thought our anniversary would be the perfect time. Especially before baby #2 enters the world.
There was a new dentist ADA conference in San Diego held on our anniversary weekend. We thought that would be the perfect place. The conference was Thursday-Saturday, and we were in San Diego Wednesday night through Sunday morning. Tommy's parents were SO great and watched Brady the entire time we were gone. It was very comforting leaving him with them.
We hoped on an hour and 10 minute flight to San Diego. And arrived at a gorgeous resort and spa called Catamaran. Really, the grounds of the resort looked like Hawaii. Palm trees everywhere, big ponds, bright flowers, coy fish, tiki torches, waterfalls, and much more. It was beautiful. It was a little weird not to have to rush back to the room to put Brady down for bed or set our alarm to wake up at 7:30. We even slept in till 9:00 one morning! I can not remember the last time I did that.
On Thursday night we enjoyed a fantastic dinner for our anniversary at a restaurant in downtown San Diego called OceanAire. It was SO.GOOD. Probably one of the top 5 restaurants we have ever eaten at. They changed their menu everyday according to the fresh fish they receive from all over the world. Everything was to die for. I left the restaurant wondering if there was still room in my tummy for the baby;)
And while Tommy was in conferences during the day, I got to enjoy laying out by the pool and the beach. It was so relaxing.
On Friday night, the ADA put on a Luau at the resort. It was fun to meet other new dentists and their wives. The food was very good, and similar to the food at Luau's in Hawaii. Fun night.
We enjoyed our time together so much.
On Sunday, we were so excited to come home to Brady. Not seeing him for 4 full days, it seems like he is talking like a 5 year old and grew an inch...but still the same sweet boy. We missed him so much. And are so thankful he was in such good hands! Thanks Nana and Papa!!!
