Jonathun and I began dating at JMU in September 2002, it's been an exciting journey together ever since. He proposed NYC in 2006, my wedding day was a fairytale come true. We moved to Charleston, got a dog (Duke), built a house then headed back to Virginia to get married. Our life stays busy (I keep trying to slow it down), as much as it's chaotic at times, I wouldn't trade it for anything else. We then got a sister for Duke (Bella) and decided that now it's time to add a baby. So here we are expecting our first baby and couldn't been more excited.
One of my friends introduced me to the concept of a babymoon. It is a vacation taken by a couple that is expecting a baby in order to allow the couple to enjoy a final trip together before the many sleepless nights that usually accompany a newborn baby. I wanted to take one but didn't think we were going to have the time. Jonathun surprised me last week with a weekend babymoon to Asheville, NC. We drove up with the dogs Friday afternoon to a cabin he had rented about 10 minutes outside of downtown Asheville. Our first dinner was Bonefish Grill one chain that I love and we do not have in Charleston, the bang bang shrimp is delicious. Saturday we made breakfast together at the cabin then spent the day at the Biltmore. It was the perfect weekend to go as they had just decorated for Christmas and the leaves were beautiful as the had changed for Fall. We then went to Early Girl Eatery (a suggestion from Krista and Whitney) for breakfast Sunday... it was excellent! Then we headed back to Charleston to watch the NY Jets beat the Buffalo Bills, it was a perfect weekend. We had so much fun together and even though our next trip will be a little different we are looking forward to those as well.
I was wondering if y'all made it back for the Jets game! Glad y'all had a great Babymoon! Enjoys these next few weeks of just the two of you!
