We had the most wonderful time on Whidbey Island, spending majority of our time walking around the small town of Langley or staring at Maggie & Sydney. Barry and I have the tradition that we don’t really give gifts on our birthdays, rather we plan a weekend away to celebrate. I love this part about us. I find it a huge challenge not to share with Barry all the details of where we are going because I typically get super excited anytime we load up the car and hit the road.
This year was interesting because I didn’t have school to contend with, but the challenge was to choose a destination that was easy to get to – Maggie still does not love the car. We rented a small one bedroom cabin/converted barn outside of Langley and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Such a fantastic weekend and I’m sure we’ll head back eventually.
Yay for birthdays and yay for traditions that involve spending time together!
