Spring Vacay...Part 2

So the second part of our spring vacation is long overdue...sorry to those who have been anxiously awaiting this post!!! Jeremy and I stayed at a bed and breakfast in Fredericksburg for the weekend. It was an anniversary present from my parents and it was much appreciated. We left on Friday afternoon and came back on Sunday. Fredericksburg is just an hour away from where my parents live so it was a good enough distance for the first time leaving Asher behind. I was so sad to leave him...



The place we stayed was called The Backforty. It is rustic, calm and relaxing. We were given directions and told we could come anytime after 3 pm and to make ourselves at home when we got there. So that is exactly what we did. We saw the innkeepers for a brief second from a distance and that is pretty much the extent of our interaction with people the whole weekend (except for going into town to eat).

This was our cottage. It is called The Guest House. According to the website Prince Charles and Camilla once stayed here and wrote a beautiful note. We thought of ourselves as royalty when we got there.

This is the back porch. I really wanted to sit outside but the weather didn't really cooperate.

The view from the back porch. I was sad that the swing was broken.

The weather was rainy Friday and Saturday morning, but I didn't care...the roof was tin so the rain made that great sound!! The place offered horseback riding, fishing, boats and spa treatments but all I wanted to do was sleep and enjoy the peace. All of that being said I missed Asher like crazy and wondered if he was being good. I only called once to check on him...

When we left on Sunday I was conflicted...sad to leave this relaxing place but excited to get back to my baby!! It was our first weekend away from Asher and we survived. Who would have thought!
