Back in May while Josh was away, we started talking about going away just the two of us to spend some time together. In the end, we decided to go to this resort at the Lake of the Ozarks here in Missouri. Josh found a couples package called "Rest, Relax and Rejuvinate". Sounded great to us! We dropped Bridget off at my sisters Thursday afternoon, and were on our way! That night we walked around the resort and ate a really nice resturant there!
That night we went into town and found a great little ice cream shop called Grandpas Ice Cream. It was this old man behind the counter, Josh asked him "So are you Grandpa?" He said "Yep!" It was really good! And the single scoops, were more like doubles!
The next day we got a couples massage, which was amazing!!! Then we went back into town for lunch. Then we spent the rest of the afternoon laying by the pool and swimming! It was great!
For dinner we went to Outback, then found some great Outlets and we enjoyed walking around!
As we were driving down the road I looked out the window and below there was a huge outdoor go-kart track. I told Josh about it, and at the next light he was flipping a U-turn. Oh great, I thought, I shouldn't have said anything! I had never done anything like this before, so I was pretty nervous! It was fun, it definately gets your adrenalin going!
Then we stopped at Grandpas one last time! He laughed when he saw us walk in, I ordered the exact same thing because I loved it so much! Josh tried something new, but regretted it and helped me finish mine!
Later on Saturday we went and picked up Bridget, he gave a big smile when she saw us.
It wasn't easy to leave her on Thursday, but it was very important for Josh and I to reconnect as a couple and to just focus on eachother. It was so nice to spend time together without also having to be a parent too. It's been awesome having Josh home again, I missed him waay too much! Thanks babe for such a great weekend!
