Memorable Weekend Trip! =)




We're back from our weekend get-away to Oklahoma, and it was nothing short of fabulous!  Gavin wanted to combine Valentine's Day and our Anniversary all in one since I'll be super pregnant by the time the end of May rolls around, so he took Sunday off from church and we packed up the car!  We stayed Friday night with Gav's parents and, as always, it was so great to see them!  They really are such a blessing and it was great to share some sweet time with them!  Saturday we got up and got ready for the day and headed off to the mall.  Gavin let me buy some new clothes (ALWAYS a treat!) and I wore one of my new dresses (in the pic above) that night to dinner.  I was extremely stubborn about it because I really wanted to wear my new dress to dinner despite the fact that it was like 25-30 degrees outside and it was a short-sleeved, knee-length dress!  Yes, I did freeze, but dangit I got to wear my new dress! =) While we wanted to go somewhere super fancy, apparently Gav and I don't really plan ahead that well because we neglected to call anywhere to make reservations until early Saturday afternoon, and by that time everything was booked since it was Valentine's Day.  Anyway, we ended up going to Cheesecake Factory and it was fabulous!  We ended up staying one more night in Oklahoma and we came home today (Monday) just in time for my dr. appointment.

Basically, this weekend was exactly what Gavin and I needed---just to get away, with no agenda and just have fun!  It was a weekend full of laughs and good memories, and a special time that I'm sure we will never forget!  This was probably our last 'just because' trip just the 2 of us for a real long time since we have a little one on the way, which made this trip all the more special!

My appointment this morning went well--we heard the heartbeat again and the dr. said everything looked and sounded good and healthy!  AND the most EXCITING part of the visit was that we set up our next appointment and on March 9th we will find out whether Baby Greer is a boy or a girl!  Oh my goodness I can hardly stand it!!!  3 more weeks!!

Well, that's it for now.  Until next time........

Oh--here are a few pics.  Gav thought he could make his tummy stick out as far as mine....and this is my "I will beat you everytime look!"
