What a {GREAT} weekend...

...this past weekend Stuart and I got to do something that we normally don't get to do...get out of town without the kids! We had a great time...the weekend started out by checking into The Davenport Hotel on Friday evening...


...if you ever get to Spokane, and you haven't stayed in The Davenport...I highly recommend it...I LOVE it! In fact, it's usually the only place Stuart and I stay while visiting Spokane...I LOVE the history of the hotel and the beds are the most comfortable I have ever slept in.

Saturday morning...I was up bright and early where I met my sister for Joggin for the Noggin. Where there was an amazing turnout and support for individuals with Brain Tumors...building Awareness here in the Pacific Northwest. This was my second year running in this event and it won't be my last...

...after the run...Stuart and I hung out and ATE...we shopped a little...and went to the movies...we LAUGHED A LOT...then we ATE some more...eating is something we usually do alot of when we don't have the kids...I'm not sure why we do that...but boy is it nice to enjoy a meal with just the two of us :)

...and then Saturday night we went and saw WICKED...we {LOVED} it!

...14 months ago...my dad was given a diagnoses of Stage 4 Brain Cancer...with a prognosis of 14 months...he hit that mark...we will never get up on the HOPE that a miracle will happen {AGAIN} that a cure will be found...we will never stop believing in the power of prayer...we will continue to have faith in the doctors and all the meds and procedures he has to go through...that contnues to keep him here with us one more day!

Sounds like a "Wicked" weekend!!! Marc and I got to see WICKED as well and LOVED it too - I would go back in a heartbeat! I am so happy for your family to be able to continue to celebrate your father. He sounds like an amazing man - wish I could meet him in person:)
