Charlotte, North Carolina!  


Jake had a training in Charlotte a week after our 7 year anniversary.  We had Jake's parents watch the boys for us, and we made a trip out of it.   

When we were packing, Keaton climbed in our suit case.  He was trying to sneak on board:)


I really enjoyed just having that time with Jake.  It kind of felt like a second honeymoon.  


We were right down town in Charlotte.  It is a beautiful city, full of art and culture.  




When Jake was in his training, I spent my time in our hotel room.  I thought I would be just fine having all of that time to myself, but I realized that I don't do well being stuck in one place for that long.  It was nice to get some reading in though. 


I almost read a whole book on oil painting.




We had a swimming pool in our hotel, but is wasn't heated.  One night after we worked out, we decided to just go jump in it.  I think we were pretty entertaining to a lady who was sitting there. 


It ended up being a very short swim.  




We ate at so many good restaurants!


 


There was a huge art museum that we went to. 

It had some weird stuff, but it also had some beautiful paintings and sculptures. 

I am so grateful we had this opportunity.  I love Jake so much.  He is my very best friend!
