Weekend Getaway with a Concert and Discovery Game

by Magnolia

Well, since we met 13 years ago, a then-popular singing group; BOYZ II MEN was both of our favorite. We have all of their CDs and one of their singles was one of our wedding songs.

So... We found out that Boys II Men will be having a concert on Valentine's Day, in St. Louis--which is about 2 hours from where we live. So we are planning to spend the weekend in St. Louis, .... We are looking to use our travel time, just to reconnect and have some adult conversation. We both work full-time jobs, and are in grad school full time- and we have two children, girls, ages 12 and 5. So the travel time alone is a PLUS!!

We have the DISCOVERY GAME, and we haven't had time to play it so we will probably play that game, once we get to the hotel, get unpacked, unwind......

We seldom have meals together because of our busy schedules, so we will have breakfast at IHOP (our favorite), and then go back to the hotel and unwind some more....

We will then get ready for the concert, and after the concert we will go home, since it is on a Sunday and we both have work/school the next day.
