First of all, its rare that you see Mark and I kiss. .... should do that more often. I threw that pic in for grins.
On Saturday morning we got up, both worked out and then headed to El Paso.
We went to the mall and spent less than an hour. We each got a pair of shoes and I got two new pair of jeans to go with the awesome boots I found on sale Thursday. More about the awesome boots in a separate blog.
From the mall we went to the movie theater. After the movie we checked into a brand new, Courtyard Marriott (it was free,used reward points), took a short nap and headed to dinner. After a fun dinner we went to the late movie. We went back to the heavenly bed at the Marriott, and read until we fell asleep. We woke up, went to the gym, sat in the hot tub, ate a great breakfast and were at the movie theater by 11:20 a.m. As soon as that movie finished we drove 40 miles to Las Cruces to meet Kristin and Joey at, yes, the movie theater! After a short visit, Kristin and Joey went to a BBQ and Mark and I had a quick dinner and drove home.
We had such a nice 24 hour vacation, we laughed and held hands and thoroughly enjoyed each others company. We used to do more things like this. I wonder how we got away from it?
We've decided that we are going to have a few more outings, just the two of us. Carlsbad Caverns is on the list, the Zuni Cliff dwellings in Silver City, somewhere hiking and definitely another trip to El Paso.
We spend a lot of time alone and we have a great home but there's just something about being away, the undivided attention, just for one day, that serves as a good reminder of why you love the one your with.
I highly recommend it!
