Just a couple days ago, Josh and I celebrated our 7 year wedding anniversary. We had an amazing time. We dropped off Isaac at my parents' house Saturday afternoon where "out-siah" (outside) became officially his favorite word. He loved wandering around on the grass, touching the trees, being on the "tam-een" (trampoline). Josh and I drove to Portsmouth, NH and checked into the fancy Hilton in the downtown. We wandered around the town, holding hands, checking out cute shops. Eventually we wandered over to the public garden area and bumped into high school friends. After that surprise meeting, we slowly went back to our room and prepared for our date night. We went to dinner at the Wellington Room (thanks Masons!). It's a small and very intimate chef-owned place that came up first when I Googled "romantic Portsmouth restaurant." After dinner, we wandered over to the public outdoor theater where they were showing Indiana Jones. The whole time, we called my parents only twice or three times. Isaac was doing great. He was happy and excited to be there.
The next morning, we went to breakfast at an outdoor cafe and eventually struck up a conversation with a nice couple with a toddler. It turns out they live in Arlington, MA and are new to the area.
Meanwhile, Isaac slept way late (6:50am), went to church and flirted with the people there. He ran up and down along the pews and waved at everyone.
Those were invigorating 24 hours.
