Running Away Together

Every once in a while, usually when the kids are driving me crazy, I walk up to Steve and say "Let's run away together." Well, since we're somewhat responsible adults, we never do, but this weekend we have our chance. My awesome brother-in-law Dan is getting married in Washington D.C., so we have a excuse to leave all our worries and responsibilities (thanks to grandparents and friends) behind, at least for a few days. So this weekend I get to forget I'm a Mom and forget that I'm building a house and I get to go to a wedding, which always reminds me of all the reasons why I married Steve in the first place, and would do it again in a heartbeat.

I'm so excited.
