Our Anniversary Trip

It was mine and Anthony's 8 year anniversary. We decided to go to Annapolis for the night while our friend watched the boys. We have only left the boys one other time overnight. So this night was well needed and deserved!

Doesn't he look happy!

Once we got there we walked around the little shops and Anthony bought me a bracelet from a cute little store. Then he said he wanted to find a hotel that he heard had some good shopping. So we go walking around a little to find it and he is acting weird so I knew he was up to something. Sure enough we walk to a spa and he opened the door. I had no idea but he had got me a facial and a pedicure, my two favorite spa treatments! He's so sweet!

Our Hotel

So this is our hotel we stayed at. It was so cool! It was built in 1779 and is where all the politicians and dignitaries stayed at. I love how old it is, I told Anthony it's probably haunted. (We didn't see any ghost though)

The inside of our room.

The floors were so crooked, they were all leaning to one side so when you walked you were all over the place. Look how short the banister is. It came to my mid thigh. They must have been way shorter back then.

Annapolis

A little comparison for the banister.

A picture of the town from our window. I was just thinking how it would be to live in the 1700's.

These are some house I loved and took a picture of. They are all original homes from the 1700's

I am pretty sure that these home were built way later but I still love the look of them.

Night and Morning

After we ate dinner we walked around some more and went to grab a coffee.

The night before I told Anthony so sleep in as long as he could because I wanted to sleep in while I could. The next morning I woke up at 6:00 am and couldn't go back to sleep. So we both got up and went to watch the sunrise. These are some pictures of Annapolis when no one and I mean no one is around.

He looks like he needs more sleep.

Morning Breakfast

When we were ready to eat breakfast we went back to our hotel. The restaurant we ate at hosted John Adams, Johan Jay and Benjamin Franklin as the celebrated the American victory over the British in the Revolutionary War. Just a little history for you.

I was cookin up Anthony's breakfast.

I thinks it's sick but this soft shelled crab breakfast was the reason Anthony wanted to eat here.

Random pics. of our trip

This is the state house.

This was money, I'm not sure of the dates but it is 2/3 of a dollar. Weird hu!

Two love birds.

The Fire Station

For playgroup we went to the fire station. Here is Carmine in front of the fire truck. Braxton was scared to go in front of it.

Don't they look happy!

Farm and Zoo

Last week was so beautiful so I took the boys to the farm.

And the Zoo.

Just Pics.

This weekend we went to the Chocolate Festival, it wasn't very good. I don't think we will be going next year. After we walked around we ate lunch at one of my favorite sandwich shops; Potbelly. Even thought the festival was a joke at least lunch made up for it!

One day the boys were very busy doing their work. I think it is so funny! Look how times have changed.

Chuck E Cheese again!

I took the boys to Chuck E Cheese again and met up with a friend of mine so the kids could play together.

Braxton usually didn't like to eat pizza. Now that he has discovered the Ninja Turtles and they eat pizza, guess who loves pizza now? Braxton! He's crazy!

Playing air hockey.

Carmine the artist

I got a Cricut machine for Christmas (LOVE IT!) and I made this saying with it.

Carmine said he was going to draw a picture of me. I think it looks just like me, what do you think?

I was actually impressed with what he did. Not bad for a 4 year old.

The boys wanted to take turns taking pictures. This I why I am actually in some picture with them.
They did a good job, maybe now I will be able to be in some pictures instead of being the one taking all of them!
