A bit of a Getaway

Every parent whose honest with themselves, understands the importance and necessity of getting away from their children, once in a while. More if you can swing it ;) It's important to rejuvenate your soul. Date nights are a must. For this mama, it's an opportunity to reconnect with my husband without us having conversations regarding poop, or if certain people were "good" today, or if someone peed or pooped in the potty. Yeah, very grown-up, important matters we discuss in our beloved abode. So you see, children can suck the life force out of your marriage, just as much as they infuse it. 

We managed to book a Vegas getaway without our kids last weekend. Thank you Lolo and Lola for watching our cuties while I remind myself what it's like to actually eat food served hot, carry a purse, and have real conversations with Mr. Fliz. Though Vegas wouldn't be the first destination that comes to mind when one needs to rejuvenate one's soul, it has plenty to offer and you don't have to do it up party style. I mean, c'mon, Mr. Fliz and I are not in our 20's anymore. But hey, we scored a promotional deal and took advantage of it. So go over here for a review of the Encore, where we stayed.
