Magnificent Millennium

Two weeks ago (I know, I know, I'm behind AGAIN!!!) we were invited to go to the Millennium Hotel in St. Louis for a kid free night with Bob and Angie! Bob decided to surprise his lovely wife with the trip and we provided a second surprise when we met them in the martini bar for drinks!

Here was the view from our room on the 24th floor!
And here is the picture Dan took of us - one arm holding the camera out - just like we used to!
Here are Dan and I at the Martini bar...notice our stoplight of drinks!
After our delish drinks we headed over to Ruth's Chris Steakhouse (thanks to Jennifer for the recommendation!) I unfortunately, wasn't feeling so hot (martinis on an empty stomach do not make a good combination!) so I didn't eat much, but the other 3 diners enjoyed their meals!

After dinner we walked back to our hotel and headed to our room! Here is a cute pic of Bob and Ang, right before Bob fell asleep!!!
Angie and I ended up watching TV for a bit (as Dan was snoring too!) before they headed back to their room! So much for partying all night!!! The next morning though, we were up and at'em for our reservations in the revolving restaurant on the top floor of the hotel! Here was a picture that the waiter snapped of us!
After our fabulous night, less than 24 hours of kid free fun, we happily headed back to retrieve the boys from Nana and Papa's house! They had a blast too, playing outside with Nana and Papa for hours. Nana even said that Jack asked her if Papa could go back outside and play with them again! Sounds like we need to plan another weekend getaway!!!
