Our Makeshift Spontaneous Babymoon

This summer has been somewhat of a challenge.   Brendon's investment banking internship requires him to work around the clock, which amounts to the fact that we see each other once a week if we're lucky.  I don't say this to elicit pity - just to make it understood how much more this weekend was appreciated by me.  

I told Brendon I would meet him in San Fran and maybe we could catch a late dinner as it would most likely be our last date before we have to start hiring babysitters.  Brendon one-upped me and made reservations at a gorgeous hotel and spa in Sausalito.  He left work at 9 pm and we had dinner at The Spinnaker (where we ate the night before our wedding) and we spent a relaxing evening in a beautiful hotel.  Saturday morning we had brunch in town and Brendon booked us massages at the spa before he had to return to work that afternoon.  

It was such a lovely evening/morning that I smiled all the rest of the day Saturday.  It is amazing how when you don't usually get any time together, a few hours can feel like a whole wonderful weekend!
