My birthday night away was amazing. Mr. Penguin took me to a cute little ski resort town about 2 hours from home for the night. The hotel was beautiful! Our room had a giant king size bed and a fireplace and jacuzzi tub...it was wonderful. We slept in and woke up on our own...not to an alarm or kids screaming! Aaaahh. Amazing what 8 hours of straight sleep can do for the soul.
In the morning I was greeted with the rest of my gift. We were going shopping all day -- for me. I could browse and buy what I wanted, no questions asked. I came home with a skirt, a top, 2 pairs of shoes, a purse, and a lunch container (I'm starting my new job soon). It was so much fun! I don't think I've ever been given that indulgence before. I recommend! LOL
In the end, it wasn't the hotel room or the things I bought that made this a great birthday. It was spending it with my penguin just being us.
And not having the kids around didn't hurt either...
*hugs*
