Mat and I finally got a vacation for the two of us only. We love having the kids and are not deprived of vacationing by any means but it was nice to just have the two of us. Originally we planned a trip to Cancun. We never felt that great about it from the beginning. The week we were scheduled to leave was the week of the swine flu outbreak. We took it as a great way to feel good about not going. We rescheduled for Maui. Our trip was delayed a month so we were very anxious to go. We had been saving spare change in our little jar and were able to do some fun things. We rented jet skis, rented bikes to bike down Haleakala ( a 34 mile volcano ride ), got massages, and had one night where we treated ourselves to a spendy dinner. The weather was a bit warm but the beaches were beautiful. Mat had a great time snorkeling and I fended off crabs from my beach towel. We missed our kids too much and kept thinking how much they'd enjoy everything we did. We love our home and are so happy to be back safe and sound with big hugs from our kiddos. Aloha!
Now that sounds like a vacation. So glad you guys were able to get away and have a little fun by yourselves.
