On June 5th, Gene and I celebrated our 13th anniversary. Yes, so this post is over a month behind...that is life these days! I cannot believe it has been 13 years - time has flown. What blows me away even more is that in 13 more years, which will presumably fly even faster with two little ones, Katelynn will be nearly 18 and entering her senior year of high school. Tyler will be almost 14 and entering his last year of middle school. Noooooooo! A sobering thought...
We have spent many an anniversary evening at Lockheart Gables. Some wonderful friends, David and Marilyn Lewis, own this fabulous B&B that is tailored to provide romantic getaways for married couples. It is near the cultural district in Fort Worth so there are plenty of great things to do and wonderful places to eat. Since Nanna and PopPop don't live too far from Ft Worth it is also very ideal to go drop the kiddos with them (thankyouthankyouthankyou), then head off for our overnight getaway. We once again stayed in the "Love Nest". Apparently it used to be a big "sleeping porch" back in the day when it was built in the late 1800's - very cool! Upon check-in, the Lewis's provide personalized gingerbread cookies and tea or lemonade. Gourmet breakfast is served in your room. I had an incredible omelet and Gene had apple pecan pancakes. We both had fresh fruit, juice, and a heart shaped homemade cinnamon bun. Yummmm. It was a much needed break from the little ones with time to focus on each other.
