The feeling of relaxation...

This past weekend, I was officially on vacation. I shut off the crisis phone (as my supervisor was serving as coverage in the event of an emergency), packed my bags, grabbed Chris, and headed down to Eureka Springs Arkansas.

The weekend was pure bliss! We spent four days being lazy, seeing the sites, and just spending quality time with each other. We had a nice dinner out, hiked through downtown (and the surrounding areas), stayed in and cooked, had a picnic at the state park, and even took a carriage ride. We had a lovely cottage all to ourselves, with a patio hot tub. The town itself was really charming and the weather cooperated very well (aside from being a little chilly).

I could not have asked for a better weekend. Although I had high expectations for the time, it far exceeded my dreams! And the quality time spent with Chris was the most precious gift of all.

Now, returning back to work today, I am refreshed and ready to tackle the next few months of internship! The preparation for the weekend was completely worth it and I would totally do it all over again if I could!
