Our Babymoon (Don't worry, the following content is all PG-rated)

Hello!

I just thought I'd pop on to share a few photos from our little getaway this past weekend. As you may recall, Jeff and I spent a couple of days at a bed & breakfast outside of Taylor's Falls along the St. Croix River, in an effort to get away from everything for a bit and just focus on spending time together. We spent some time poking around in antique stores and hanging out at coffee shops, as well as getting pampered with massages at the B&B. And while the temps were a bit chilly, we managed to get in a little time outside...at least long enough to snap some pics.

Here are a few shots of the B&B:


* St. Croix River Inn, built around 1900

* Jeff, looking stoic in our room (the Afton Suite)

* Me, obviously going for a more dramatic entrance

Grecco's on the St. Croix, our dining destination on Saturday night (it was FABULOUS!)


Sights along the St. Croix River



Jeff thought it would be funny to take a series of photos of me shivering in the cold (stupid me forgot to bring a hat)


Our faces may be frozen....but damn, we still look good. ; )
A random, ancient pop machine at a gas station that we thought was hilarious (if you look closely, you'll see that back in the day, Mountain Dew was brewed in the "traditional hillbilly style" and promised to "tickle yore innards".)

While scouring antique stores, Jeff was reunited with his past.....


It was a lovely, perfect weekend......and we didn't want it to end! But we had to face reality as Sunday evening rolled in.....and we headed home. We have big plans of making the same treck along the St. Croix River this summer or fall, when we hope to bring Sprout along to see the sights and enjoy the outdoors. Thinking about that prospect makes it easier to accept that we are now in the midst of another work week. : )
Take care, all.....I'll update after tomorrow's doctor's appointment!
Love,
Jeff, Farrah & Sprout
