So this was our weekend, Cowboy and I's first getaway on our own, since the birth of our 14 month old son.
We drove to Echuca, a touristy little town filled with charisma for the annual Jazz and Wine festival...
complete with lovely tapas menu...
it didn't take us long to get into the spirit, so we ditched the wine bar and headed to a place where we could drink barrels of wine....
starting to feel chilled out now...
lovely Italiano food complete with jazz band again... we have decided trombones and Harry Connick Jnr songs are the new ACDC...
and above, why these are the token silly shots... just cos....!
we had A BALL!!!!
How important it is, particularly as parents, to just get away on your own and remember who you are again minus the responsibility - if only for a couple of days!!
When we got home I was SO excited to see Monte I could not get there quick enough - it was clear he was fine while we were away but also clear that he was glad to see us again!
The best feeling.
A lovely break for us all - and it was lovely that he wanted me to carry him around everywhere when we got home :-)
AND ... just when I thought our homecoming couldn't be any friendlier and happier...
it looked like someone else had missed me aswell...
it's OK Honey, I'm home....
