Hello my friends! Sorry I’ve been M.I.A. this week. I’ve been watching my sick 2 year-old niece the last couple of days. I have to hand to it all of you mommies out there that are able to work from home while having little ones. I can’t get a darn thing accomplished. Not that I’m complaining, I love spending time with her, and everything else can just sit on the back burner for a few days.
I do, however, want to catch you up on what we did last weekend.
Usually Topher and I are homebodies on the weekends. When the kiddo graduated, and we kicked off our new website about our transition to being empty nesters, we decided we needed to go out and do more, be more adventurous, and try new things. We definitely aren’t getting any younger, and we want to have some fun dating once again.
We discussed before how we would love to be lounging on a different beach each week in the Caribbean … but sadly the budget does not allow it.
So we decided to look around in our own backyards to check out the fun things relatively close to home. While scouring the internet, we came across the Lantern Fest and noticed it was coming to town. Have you seen the amazing pictures on Pinterest of the gorgeous skies, lanterns floating up towards the heavens? Well I have, and it became a line on my bucket list folks.
When I found out they were having one of these 30 minutes away from my house, you bet that I was on board! I reached out to the event host, and they graciously gave us tickets in exchange for a review. And although they covered our entrance fee, all the comments in this article are genuine….
