Tom and I celebrated Griffin's 6 mo birthday and my 28th birthday by taking a much needed night up at our favorite bed and breakfast Peace With Inn (sans baby). It was our first night away from him, but Griff didn't seem mind as he had a blast at Gma and Gpa's house (THANK YOU!). In addition to playtime in his mountain of toys, Gpa took Griff on an adventure in the basement, and Gma gave him lots of cuddles and kisses and brought him on a long walk. Griff and Unkie Bri discussed which Burton snowboards would have enough slash for Griff's first riding season while they watched F1 and the World Cup final.
Our 21 romantic hours away did not disappoint. The highlights: stopping at Dunks for coffee and going inside rather than using the drive thru since we had no baby in the car, the adorable orange rash guard we found for 5 bucks at Gymboree, the $8.50 pint glass of peachy alcohol that got me thoroughly buzzed during dinner at Flatbread (I am such a cheap date!), the bubble-less but still lovely bath, 8.5 hours of uninterrupted sleep in the coziest sheets ever, winning at the Mustang game (Tom and I adapted our own version of the "Punch Buggy" game except there's no punching), amazing breakfast, catching up with Cathy, learning about Noodle the Poodle and the egg laying process of chickens, and stopping at the Whistle Stop for atomic fire balls on our way home.
