Parents-Only Weekend

This past weekend, us and 4 other couples went up north to Brad's parents cottage for a weekend away. This was our first weekend away from Ella - it was difficult to be away from her but it was a ton of fun to be with our friends! We did a lot of vegging - watching movies, playing games, eating at the local restaurants :) and lots of girl talk while the guys did Manolymics. We were just able to kick back and relax - like a mini vacation. Here are some pics from the weekend... The guys out on the ice on Big Star Lake...against the wishes of the wives:)One of the Winter Manolympic events - a Wii sports tournament!Mere and JillJulie, Jill and Lindsey

way to go guys, getting away with just the two of you is SO important. it makes you a better husband, wife, mom & dad. keep up those "mini vacations!"
