A Small Get-Away!

Last week was spring break.. it was also week 12 of my final semester before student teaching. Brett's parents had received two free suites at Argosy in Kansas City and invited us to go down with them, for my birthday. I was hesitant at first, because I have NEVER left my children for more than a few hours. Brett and I discussed it and decided that if Kelly, my sister, was able to come to our house and keep them that we would go. AND SHE DID! We left Wednesday morning and headed for Kansas City. It was "oddly-wonderful" to have three hours to talk with my husband, or should I say to talk TO my husband.

Our room was really nice. The bathroom had a walk-in/sit/down steamer/shower! Brett and I are not much into the casino (prior to this vacation I hadn't ever been in one) but being that I am a people watcher it did make for entertainment. (people-watching may be the biggest pet-peeve Brett has with me, I am trying to break this habit). On Thursday Brett and I spent the day at Legends, shopping, walking, talking and eating! =) After leaving Legends we went to Cabela's. This was more for Brett then myself, but he did just go through several (or more) stores with me! =)

I let Brett talk me into going to the casino with him and his parents at 2 in the morning on Friday!! That would be the far left picture! *crazy* I get up with a child at that time at least once a week, can't believe I did it on vacation!!

Friday we grabbed a bit to eat at the T-Rex cafe with my In-Laws and headed home. I missed my babies SOOO MUCH! (I only cried one time when we were gone) It was so great to spend some time with Brett, we haven't laughed with one another in awhile!

We will definitely go to Kansas City Legends again, but next time I will take my babies!!
