A Weekend Getaway!

Nate and I have now been married for 10 years! I can't believe it has been that long. We have never gone on a vacation that was just for fun without the kids. (It took us until this year to take a "just for fun" family vacation to Florida.)

Nate found a cute bed and breakfast that was about 2 hours from here so that we could get away but not have to travel too far. We went to Spicer Castle- sounds impressive doesn't it?

The first night we participated in a Murder Mystery Dinner. It was so fun to play with some of the other guests. We all dressed up for our parts and enjoyed a delicious meal. Who was the murderer? It was me! I was pretty surprised but so was everyone else because I was pretty good at diverting the attention away from the details about my character. Here is a photo with all involved. It was funny because at breakfast the next morning we had to reintroduce ourselves to those we had met last night because we only knew each other as our character names.



While there we enjoyed wonderful meals, a dinner cruise on the lake, an afternoon free to wander and we went to see a movie... It was a fun weekend and I would encourage all couples to take time to get away and don't wait 10 years to do it!



And here is a photo from the lake side.

Fun! I love the mystery dinner. I'll bet you had a blast. We're getting away for our 5th, this year. Back to Galveston, I hope. Glad you got to get a away for a few days!
