A Little Time Away

This past weekend, Zach and I took a  mini vacation and went up to Port Townsend for a long weekend. As you can see, we had a lot of fun. This is us goofing around in the Rose Theater before we saw 56Up, the latest in a pretty cool documentary series that follows the lives of a group of people from the age of seven. Even though the documentary was really good, if I'm being honest, I had even more fun in the lobby taking pictures with Zach! I'm really lucky to have a partner who knows how to have fun and keeps me laughing and smiling.  If you are ever feeling sad or stressed out, I highly recommend taking some silly-face pictures with someone you love.
Being away from home, I was out of my normal routine and ended up eating a lot of things I wouldn't normally eat so much of: Hello Mt. Townsend Creamery cheese! Hello Southern restaurant mac & cheese! Hello a few too many adorable 5oz glasses of craft beer at The Pourhouse (we did manage to eat a few healthy meals from the delicious deli at the  Port Townsend Food Co-op).  I also didn't get in nearly as much exercise as I normally would (although we did do a lot of walking), and I didn't get myself all set up for this week with salads and a clean house. But you know what? I had a wonderful weekend clowning around with my sweetheart, eating delicious food, and relaxing. The happiness and well-being that brings me is well worth making some unhealthy food choices and missing a few days of exercise!
