Celebrating 3 years

Today, in honor of our 3 year wedding anniversary, Tim & I played hooky from work. Ok, not really hooky, we got the day off approved in advance but we spent the entire day together. It was great! We had a leisurely morning and had fun playing with Eli. We took him to school an hour later than normal. After a few odds and ends at the house, we went for a mountain bike ride at Umstead and Lake Crabtree. The weather was perfect and for most of the ride, it seemed like we had the park to ourselves. Being on the bike together again was such fun. We're not in as good of shape or quite as fast as we used to be but we still had fun. We treated ourselves to Moe's - Welcome to Moe's! - for lunch. Then a few errands and back home for a brief bit before we picked up Eli. Tim tried to install a baby gate but it didn't fit at the top of our stairs and he installed one of our Tot Loks. Babyproofing is definitely on the "to-do" list this weekend.

Today was a wonderful day. We think this may be our new tradition. Dinner out isn't enough for us, we deserve a whole day together!!
