Holiday Escape

In the middle of our quick Christmas Break trip, we spent a couple of days at a nearby resort.

We started the escape by leaving Nash happily napping at home with a sitter, and enjoying a special pool day with Blake.

He couldn't have been more thrilled about the ginormous pool, especially since his grandparents' pool was closed due to the lack of heating in the "winter."

After swimming our hearts out, we admired all of the cool features around the resort. 

Blake thought it might be appropriate to strike a triangle pose in front of the enormous Christmas tree.

My parents were awesome enough to take Blake home with them while Troy and I stayed overnight at the resort.

In the midst of all of the swirling holiday stress, it was so nice to have a little 24 hour escape.

And, I got to go out on a date with my handsome husband. We laughed, a lot. Especially at the teenage girls that were sitting next to us at the movie theater and getting completely wrapped up in the wing-dinger of a movie we chose.

Even though we were technically on a vacation trip together, I felt like I never saw Troy except for that little escape. It was much needed and much appreciated.
