Parents night out

For Eric's birthday I surprised him with comedy show tickets at the Tempe Improv and a night away at the Wyndham hotel in dowtown Phoenix. Last weekend we had our get away night. Aunt Carolyn flew in from Chicago just to watch Claire for us. We left early Saturday and headed to Scottsdale for lunch, cocktails, and relaxing. We went to the Rusty Spur Saloon in Old Town Scottsdale for our first stop then hopped over to Olive & Ivy for lunch. Then it was off to the Yard House to check out their extensive selection of beers on tap. It was a real treat to spend the whole day together alone! We hadn't stayed away from home (minus the recent bday party) in 2 years! After our Scottsdale day we went to the hotel to get ready to head out to Tempe for dinner and the show. Luckily the Valley Metro light rail runs from the hotel right in to Tempe so we didn't have to drive anywhere. I wish we actually took pics of us together out but of course we didn't do that! We were too busy relishing the sweet moments alone! And sleeping until 9:30!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good times!!
