Little Getaway

Last weekend the Parental Units around here escaped for a little time alone! Grammy and Papa Frank were kind enough to come for the weekend to entertain the little people.

First up was a Pen's game!

The tickets were our Christmas present to each other! We had never been to a Pens game before, and we wanted to give each other a gift that we would be able to DO with each other. Fun, parental time alone is RARE around here! And this was FUN! The Pens won 8-1, and Evgeni Malkin score a hat trick! Woo hoo!

Happy parents:

Umm, it was COLD in the arena. Yeah, yeah, I know it's HOCKEY. But it was still colder than I was expecting.

After the game, we checked into our hotel in the city and relaxed for a bit. We had plans to go a little Italian place in the city for dinner. We had a bit of a wait when we got there, and the restaurant is SO tiny, that we hit up a coffee shop BEFORE dinner. It's so easy to roll with the punches when all you have to worry about is adults and not hungry, three year old bellies.

More happy parents:


After a quiet night, we were up not much later than usual to hit the Strip for breakfast, Penzey's Spices, and pepperoni rolls! Then it was home again to our cherubs. We can't wait to do it again!
