A Little Time Off

This past weekend, David and I had a little time away. It was wonderful! We stayed two night, just locally in downtown Sacramento at a hotel that was basically right on the plaza. We walked everywhere. We just stepped right out our hotel doors and into the mall or to Old Town Sac. Plus the view from our room was beautiful. Especially at night with the bridge lite and the capital.





We went to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner and then saw back to back movies, Eagle Eye and Nick & Norah's Infinite Play List. (We didn't movie hop, but when we went back out to pay I asked for a discount and she gave us the Senior price. Doesn't hurt to ask!) It was so nice to not have to worry about getting back to the kids.

On Saturday morning we walked into Old Town and had breakfast. We sat and read the paper and watched a wedding party take pictures on the railroad tracks. Then we walked through old town. They have a great candy store with barrels of taffy and treats. A little later in the afternoon we walked over to the Crocker Art Museum. They are having a Andy Warhol exhibit. There was a variety of pop art that was fun to see. My favorite room there is the Salon room. All the art if hung close to each other and up high to the ceiling. There are many old pieces that are just beautiful and interesting. Including their frames that look like pieces art themselves.
















Saturday night we went to one of our favorite restaurants, the Zinfandel Grill and then to Ettore's for dessert. It was nice to remember what it is like to just be a couple. David even commented how youthful I seemed, it must have been the lack of two little persons hanging on my sides. It was just wonderful to have the time together.

Thank you to all our family for watching the boys and helping out, this included Grandma Mills, Peter & Janell, Gramma Jean, Grandma & Grandpa Surganovich, and Aunt Teri. We really appreciate it and the boys had a wonderful time!
