Weekend in the country...


We decided to take off for the weekend and hole up in Andrew's parent's country house in Cold Spring NY this past weekend. It was rainy, foggy and not so pleasant outside so a great weekend to build a fire and stay indoors the whole time. We got there late Friday night and stayed until Sunday afternoon and enjoyed being free from phones, computers and t.v. The majority of Saturday was spent with me plowing through the book "Twilight", which I decided I have heard so much about I might as well read it. I finished it today before we left...and looking forward to seeing the movie when it opens this weekend as well as starting the next book in the series! Andrew spent the majority of the day tending to the fire...which he did a pretty good job at! I swear, we are going to have to buy a house with a fireplace some day! We did leave the house Saturday night for dinner at a Mexican restaurant and to see the movie Changeling...the fajitas were better than the movie. Our weekend was complete with a stop at our favorite pizza place in CT, Frank Pepe's and then groceries from Trader Joe's on the way home. All in all, a nice relaxing weekend and we are ready for another week of work!

Very sweet, hey that fireplace looks just like ours, up on a a shelf, surrounded by brick, wooden bookcases on the side, fire in it. I'll post a picture
