A Time for Relaxation....

This past week, Justin and I went to St. Augustine, FL for a time of renewal and relaxation. My mom and sister were gracious enough to keep Addie for a few days, so we were really able to enjoy our time together! I didn't know how well I would do without her, but after 24 hours, I was able to relax and not think too much about being away from her. We were so glad to get away and be a couple for a while! As you can guess, between medical school and a 18 month old, we haven't had much time to just be alone! All in all, we had a wonderful week and look forward to more couple time!


We dined at several fine restaurants! (A big change from Chick-fil-a!)
Here we are at the Cafe Alcazar in the Lightener Museum.
The restaurant is actually in the pool that was once a part of the Alcazar Hotel!



We did A LOT of walking and touring the Old Town. Here I am infront of the Oldest Wood School House in the U.S.A. It was funny to read all of the requirements that the teachers were held to - especially the one where teachers had to save a certain percentage of their paycheck for retirement so as not to become a "burden" on the town in their old age!


We also got to "rub shoulders" with some famous people! Here I am posing for a picture with our friends from Seinfield! We also met Tiger Woods, Sylvester Stallone, and Brangelina!

(We actually just went to the Potter's Wax Museum. It was freaky how life-like some of the figures looked and how some looked nothing like the real people at all! Tiger Woods, for example, should be probably be offended at his likeness--it doesn't look anything like him!)



This was our last night in St. Augustine. We had a fabulous dinner and then walked along the ocean wall beside the old fort. We had a marvelous time and really enjoyed our time together!
