A few months ago Peter and I purchased tickets for the upcoming Safe In Sound concert where one of our favorite EDM artists would be playing at the show. The concert was scheduled for this past Saturday. As the date started to approach, we decided we wanted a break from concerts and that a stay-cation date night sounded better. We sold our tickets and made reservations to a local hotel using a gift certificate that I was given back in June. So last Saturday, while our friends Anne and Erik graciously had the boys over for a sleepover, we went out. After we checked in and got everything settled in our room, we headed straight for the pool and hot tub. We goofed around for a bit until we realized we were starving. We made a quick trip back to our room to quickly get ready and then headed out. We settled on Applebee's, where we enjoyed a drink, appetizer, dinner AND dessert. Once our tummies were full we headed back to the hotel for the remainder of the evening. We slept until 10 am the next morning. Feeling refreshed, we showered and check out of our room. We made a quick stop to Starbucks for coffee and bagels before grabbing the boys. We definitely made the right choice in skipping the concert :)

Decisions, Decisions
Drinks & Dessert!
I've heard horror stories about the germs that are in hotel's ice buckets and drinking cups, so I refuse to use those. So at around 9 pm, after we realized we forgot to stop at a store after dinner to pick up some bottled water, we decided to take a walk to the gas station down the road. We failed to realize there was a rainstorm going on. This picture doesn't do it justice...the wind was howling, rain slammed into us, and water was up past our ankles as we crossed the street.
We were soaking wet head to toe!
