The last time Jeremy and I got to go out without the kids
was to see The Hunger Games, which was a bit of a disappointment compared to
the book and was very rushed. We went straight to the movie and came straight
home. But last Saturday was a very special
treat. My sister-in law gladly watched our kids all day while Jeremy and I went
on a hike. We went to Rattlesnake Ridge and completed the 5mile hike to the
top. It was so beautiful, but I must admit it reminded me of how afraid I am of
heights…it's the kind of fear where I can’t stop thinking of different scenarios in
which Jeremy or I would somehow slip off the edge of the cliff. Anyway, we
found a safe spot on the top to have some lunch then headed back down. At the
bottom was a calm lake that Wyatt fully enjoyed after the hike. Sometimes you forget how important it is to
have time as a couple away from your children. All of our focus could be on
each other and we were not interrupted by a crying baby or a poopy diaper,
although I wouldn’t change having those moments for the world, well maybe we
could do without the poopy diapers!
