An exciting weekend...Part I
Yesterday was Vun and my 11th anniversary. We've always taken the pawn our kids off to someone and get away for at least one night of R&R. Over the last two years, this has not been an option as our pastor's and wives weekend falls a few weeks before this. Affording two weekends at a hotel, is beyond our means.
That is...unless some of your friends, jump in and come up with a creative solution. And so, This past week, Jonathan and Ashlee offered to babysit our kids overnight, and made their apartment available for Vania and I to go and have a night of....well, you can figure it out.
You can see the pictures of how they'd had their apartment sept up when we arrived. The Hotel Abraham.
We had a great dinner and a great night without the kids. We woke up late and went to the Studio West Cafe and enjoyed some good food.
All in all a perfect celebration of our Anniversary.
The kids behaved well. So maybe we didn't cure Jay and Ashlee from a desire not to have kids soon.
Thank you guys. We loved it.
