New York....suprise!!!




My sweet Husband must have known how badly I needed a break so this weekend he suprised me and took me to New York!! He had to go there for work, but I didn't know that he bought me a ticket too! We left on Wednesday afternoon and came home Saturday morning. It was a quick trip, but also a much needed break for me! We got to go and see Phantom on Thursday night and I spent some time in the city on Friday (there were so many people there!! So I didn't get to shop like I wanted to, but I did get to see the Big Christmas tree...)

I also took advantage of being in a place where no one knew me and whenever I was asked "how far along are you" or "when are you due?" I'd answer "any day!" and it was amazing how nice people were!! "you look so good!!..." instead of "your HUGE! are you sure your not having twins?!"
I might have to continue with this lie even though I'm back in Utah!!!

I enjoyed my "time off" from kids, I slept with no interuptions, which was fabulous!...but I always miss my boys and I appreciate them so much more!! I love coming home to their big hugs and kisses...Cade was so cute! He wouldn't let me put him down and he kept grabbing my face in his hands saying "HI MOM" in this high screechy voice, and then he'd hug me until I'd have to pry him off my face. My boys are sweet and I'm sure they enjoyed their break from me just as much as I enjoyed mine from them!
Thanks to my hubby for being in tune and giving me a great Christmas present!! Love you babe! And thanks so much to my mom and dad, cyndy, and bruce and shawna for watching the boys...we are so lucky to have so much help!!

Okay, I'm officially jealous! Tell your husband to call my husband....j/k. I love New York! You must have loved having a break and time alone. Your husband gets a big 10 for that one. You crack me up...just keep telling everyone you are due any minute and you'll be fabulous. :)

Dave and Jess,
This is John and Amy Farr. We saw your blog on somebodies sight and wanted to say HI! You have a very cute family, and Amy loves the way your wife narrates her blog. Hope you don't mind if we sneak a peek at your blog sometimes. Hope you are doing well in Utah, Med school is almost over for us. Wahoo!

Jess, Amy Meet you once at the gap, but if you want to see a pic of the people who are commenting on your blog you don't know, our blog is Jandafarr.blogspot.com
Good luck with your new one and God Bless.

Yeah! I am SO glad that Dave took you away for a little while. You totally deserved it! And I think "any day" is a perfect response to the big question of when you are due. It really could be "any day" now, couldn't it! People are SO RUDE! Don't let it bother you...You look FABULOUS!!!

Kendal and Kendra said...

How fun! I am so jealous! Kendal and I went out on a date Saturday night and I missed Kristin like crazy! I wonder when that will stop!? You look so great! We need to get together before that next baby comes or it might never happen! Let me know what your schedule is like!

Annie said...

Kudos to Dave! Sounds like you had a great time in NYC...I'm jealous! We need to do lunch!
