Weekend Getaway

Nathan's dad came into town for a week and so we thought it would be fun to get away for the weekend. So Nathan planned a romantic get away. We ended up leaving Friday afternoon right after work. I had no idea where we were going or what we were going to do. We ended up going to Twin Falls because we drive past it all the time on our way down to Utah but have never stopped to see what all was there. So we stayed at the Holiday Inn Express (which was under construction so the pool and hot tub was not in service. Strike 1) We went over to a local pizza place and had dinner then we wandered around Target for a while. The next morning we got up somewhat early so we could hit the Continental breakfast, (ended up being not so great, Strike 2) so we headed for Shari's and had breakfast.



Next on our agenda was going to visit the beautiful Shoshone Falls! It was super cold so we took some pictures and left. We will go visit again with the kids when it is warm. Since the falls didn't take as long as we planned we wandered around the mall, which took us a whole 20 minutes & Fred Meyer about 45 minutes. Next we went to the college to visit the Planetarium. That ended up being really neat. We visited the gift shop and walked around the museum for almost an hour.



Dinner was next, we went to Mexican and then went to go see Confessions of a Shopaholic at the movie theater. Right after the movie we drove home. It was a fun filled 1 1/2 days, Nathan did a great job. I am super lucky to have such an awesome husband!

I think it is always worth the time for short vacations away from the kids..you might lose your mind otherwise.
