FIRST NIGHT AWAY FROM OUR PRINCESS

This past week I have been leaving Ryan notes daily telling him to not make plans for the weekend and I had a surprise for him. Well, Ryan doesn't care for surprises and wasn't sure what I had up my sleeve. As each day went on he became more curious what we were going to do. He had all of these elaborate ideas in his head and I was SO GOOD, I didn't tell him and kept it a surprise. For those of you that know me well, this was REALLY HARD. Anyways, he found the final surprise poem in a bottle the morning of the 4th and it told him to pack his bags for one night. So he was convinced that we were going to stay in Galveston for the night. I hope I didn't disappoint that we just stayed at the Marriott in the Woodlands, but it was such a wonderful night! We went to the "Red Hot & Blue" festival and it was just a walk down the waterway for us from the hotel. The band and fireworks were great & we had a great time drinking wine. We also connected like we haven't in awhile as sometimes life gets so busy! We decided we need to do it more often as we felt so refreshed when we left the hotel. We felt like we had really been on VACATION! Thanks Mema and PePa for watching her! We knew she was in good hands & didn't worry a bit! Oh wow, I just figured out how to change the text. Cool! Okay, it is getting late and I have been blogging for over 2 hours to catch up as I was behind again! I can't seem to find anytime in my day to blog as K usually needs me. We are usually eating, bathing, preparing for nap, or playing. I wouldn't trade it for the world. These last 4 months have changed our lives for the better. We are truly blessed. Good night!
