This is my friend Mary Beth.
Awww, isn't she sweet?? I went away with her this weekend on a girls weekend getaway to a big city in a neighboring province. I could tell you lots of embarrassing things about her now, but I'll save face, and just tell you that she broke the drain in our hotel room within the first 2 minutes of us being there. As a result, we got a sweet room upgrade because there were no more basic rooms available. We had 2 queen beds, a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom and 2 flat screen TVs in our room.
We went away to get a break from the everyday (we're both busy moms), and to relax and have fun. And that we did. We also did lots of eating...
... saw a lovely play...
... and went into MEC way too many times to admit - mostly for Greg's benefit.
We also did lots of other fun shopping, and walking around the city. We did some hot-tubing...
... hung out in our awesome room and watched TV (for some reason mostly the real estate and TV guide channels).
... read (some of us more exciting things than others)...
... visited the market...
... drank coffee, talked, laughed, pumped (OK that was me), packed the trunk full and came home...
My husband did a fantastic job while I was away, taking care of both boys, and even bringing them to several outings by himself. He managed to throw a surprise in there for me, and moved some furniture in our house that I've been wanting him to move for weeks now.
It was so awesome to get away, not have to change someones diaper for a whole day, and wake up whenever I wanted to. Can't wait to do it all over again - hey Greg? :)

thanks for a great mini-getaway!!
Well it was a fun "BOYS weekend getaway" for us too. No one had to make their bed, toys were found in the morning right where we left them the day before, out cloths didn't have to match and wrestling was actually initiated by the parent. Yip definitely a getaway from the routine! :)
ha ha Greg...
Glad you gals had such a fun time - you both certainly deserve it! Way to go MB on the room upgrade! I see a Bath and Body works bag in that trunk..
Perhaps the next girl trip could be to VA??? Just sayin' :)
Looks like you had a great time. Love that you both had fun that weekend, even with the boys clothes not matching. ;)
