This weekend, Jeromy and I took Caroline to the mountains for our annual weekend away with friends. This was the fourth year we’ve made the trip to central Virginia and we have such a great time each and every year. It’s crazy to think that the first year we went, only two of the four couples were married and none of us had babies. Now, not only are we all married but between us, there are six babies all under the age of 2.5. Needless to say, this weekend was much different than in years past. And it was fantastic!
We traded in hangovers for early morning playtime.
We left the babies for a much needed girls’ day at the spa.
We took Caroline for a quick walk in her first snow fall. She has seen snow falling but has never felt it fall on her face. She wasn’t the biggest fan, but I’m sure she’ll love it eventually.
After barely any snow or cold weather this winter, six inches of snow in the mountains was a very welcome addition to the weekend.
I’ll admit, I was a little nervous that ten adults, six babies and three dogs would add up to a not so relaxing weekend, but I was wrong. It was relaxing and after last week, it was exactly what I needed.
