A Night Away
We had a great opportunity to go stay at a hotel a short distances for our house (sounds crazzy to saty at a hotel less than and hour from your house). It was kind of a spur of the moment deal just for the afternoon and evening. I brought the boys there in the afternoon and told them we were having a “manly night” while mom stayed home and worked. We did a bunch of swimming and ate some really good pizza. Mom did come about 6:30 and stayed the night with us (we had this planned all along). My awesome boss let me come into work a little later so I could stay and play in the pool and hang with the family. We had a great time and can’t wait to do it again.

What a fun thing to do! Love the pictures in the pool. So colorful! Did you eat peanut butter and pickles while you were there?:)
What a fun mini break!
Sometimes it nice to get away even if you are close to home. I love the pool pics. it really looks like they were enjoying themselves.
That's a great idea to get away with the boys!
I love the ones of your kids in the pool! They are wonderful!

What a cool idea! Glad you got to do that. Great shots.
How fun! We used to take "vacations" like this when we were little, just go stay in a hotel, swim and eat out and I have the fondest memories of those trips!! I really like the last shot!
DH and I have done that before. Stayed in a bed and breakfast 20 mins from home (had drive an hour to drop off dd though so it seemed far). Sounds like lots of fun.
Oh how fun. Nice shots of them in the pool.
What a neat little break! Love the two in the pool, they're so bright and fun!
sounds lie a great getaway. love the shots of the kids in the pol. the color on those is great. that first shot is neat too!
Great pictures! Love the first one in B&W, but the colors of the pool pictures are also stunning. Wish I could do that more often, just get away from the house!!
I love your water shots! The water looks really cool!!
Oh, I bet your kids had a great time, what a fun surprise for them. What a fun sign that first one is. Oh, and thank you for no peanut butter and pickles today ;)
that is sooo cool...but i don't get it (yeah, i'm slow today)...is it snowing out there? if it was, then i assume you guys were at an indoor pool...
at any rate, lovely shots with the water reflecting on the pool...
tfs!
Ah...that's awesome. I miss doing things like that. We just don't have the money these days!
Love the pool pictures. The colors are so vibrant and sharp!
How fun. It looks like you had a great time. I love that deer shot.
Great idea to have some family time! Looks like you were having some fun!!
What a fun family activity! Great pics of the boys and I see some green! Just not outside, as I see you are still having snow just like us.
Fun shots! We do this too! It's almost more fun for me to stay clse to hme. Easy to go get anything we forgot, you know? OR sleep at home if the bed sucks.
Jason, the pool photos are really cool--in both, the background colors (water in the first, life vest in the second) seem to echo your sons' eyes. Nice work!
how fun! we should all do that more often.
What a fun family time!
Yay! what a fun thing to do to get away and have some special family time!
how fuN! that is a memory they will treasure forever!
it's a small thing, but a big deal to kids!

What a great idea. We did that once - about 7 kids ago ;) - and it was loads of fun. Love the pool pictures!
