Wild, Wild Weekend

Me and Kelly got back on Monday from our "Anniversary Getaway" to Lake Tahoe. We left Thursday afternoon, which was our actual anniversary. Went to the South Shore instead of our normal North Shore location. It was beautiful! We spent Thursday traveling and then looking for a "decent" place for dinner. The traveling went well..however...I cannot say that about the "decent" place for dinner. We tried a few different places, but did not realize what a happenin' place Tahoe was on a Thursday night, and we would have to wait at most places we went for over an hour. Our first clue should have been when we found a place with only a 15 minute wait. I ordered an open face turkey sandwich, Kelly ordered Pork Chops. Do you remember when you went to school and they had their "Thanksgiving Lunch"? Processed Turkey, Wonder Bread, Stove Top Stuffing???? I believe that is where they got the recipe for my dinner. When I asked Kelly how is was, he just said it was not what he hoped for (he was trying to be positive!). We spent the rest of the weekend playing games, eating yummy food, and relaxing(!). We even went to a comedy show one night, it was nice to have a good laugh! It was a great extended weekend, without having to worry about work, house, or even the kids...... According to them they, "Partied like rock stars!!!" They got to stay home with Ms. (Nancy) Ludu (yes, the same Ms. Ludu who was Kellens awesome 4th grade teacher!!!!) She took great care of them and made sure they had a great weekend too. They got new Webkins, got to play lots of video games, hang out with friends, and the thing Camden has talked about most - have some candy and soda. We did not worry about them once. We cannot thank Ms. Ludu enough! She has been a great friend and support to us the last year! I am not sure we could have done it without her!
We had a good time and now we will look forward to next year...maybe we will change our tradition and add a few more getaways.....Our birthdays, Valentines, Presidents Day.......
