Yesterday was my husband, Jakub's, birthday, so I've spent the last week or so planning a neat little getaway that he'd enjoy. We really did have a great time, from start to finish. Yeah, we did do some fun stuff like go to a state park, have a fancy picnic with cheeses and such (I think it's important you know early on cheese can make me go weak in the knees.), and see a wonderful movie and later eat a scrumptious dinner at a fantastic restaurant, but I love how no matter what we do, or if we do nothing at all we have such an incredible time together. We don't have kids yet, but I can't wait for my children to see that about us. I don't see how they'll be able to get out of seeing the love we have for each other.
I love birthdays. Absolutely love them. Even though I am fully aware that we get them every year at the same time (on the same day, which should mean they're predictable), I always feel as if they sneak up on me and catch me by surprise. It's always nice to see how things have changed and what milestones we have made it through. I think about a lot of things, but the subject of birthdays always capture my mind in some interesting ways.
Tomorrow, my love and I are leaving to Las Vegas on business. I don't think we're like the typical people that go to Vegas. In fact, we don't have any real desire to go, but I'm excited to see what will happen there. It will surely be a nice "people watching" spot.
I guess we actually leave in about 5 hours and it hasn't hit either of us yet. I think right now, what I'm most excited about is the fact that we both are taking only carry-on luggage! There's two reasons: First, we've both been known to over pack (only our return flight Portland, Oregon last month, Jakub's bag weighed 49.5 lbs! That's HALF a pound away from the limit!). And second, I'm pretty cheap so not having to spend money on checked baggage makes me excited!
