Every year we try to get out of town and somewhere warm in the midst of the cold, crazy time that is budget season at work, and every year I think I have never needed this more. Well this year, we have never needed this more. It hasn't even been cold this winter, but oh to get out of our crazy, topsy turvy house and not talk about which car seat or stroller to buy for JUST TWO SECONDS...it was heaven.

We hopped down to Puerto Rico for a couple days, where we basically sat on the beach and read. Between us we finished all three
Hunger Games books, only got slightly sunburned, slept many extra hours, and got a huge kick out of the way our British-voiced GPS mispronounced all the Spanish street names. We've spent so much time in serious conversations lately--siding colors, daycare options, how to manage the latest crisis of our house project--that it was a relief to just enjoy each other's company in quiet. We spent one evening with old friends from our old church who are currently living outside of San Juan, and on our last night we splurged for a charming and delicious French dinner in Old San Juan.

We both came home with extra air in the lungs and a bounce in the step, ready to face all the decisions and chaos and late nights coming our way for the next few weeks. Bueno.
