Tim had a gift certificate for a free night at one of the Westin hotels, so we decided to cash in and spend the night in the city. We stayed at the St. Francis and it was wonderful. We had a great outdoor dinner on top of the city overlooking Union Square, enjoyed some adult conversation (well, for the most part), and took some time to just be husband and wife.
I absolutely love the city....the excitement, the lights, the nonstop activity, and the unique people that belong to it...there are moments when I think I can be a city girl, but then I realize it would be an ideal situation only if I was single, without children, and a career woman. Unfortunately, I don't fit any of these categories...career woman would be pushing it considering I require at least three months off out of the year! But, it's definitely great to live so close to San Francisco that we can enjoy all it has to offer, while also being able to go home to our nice little suburban bubble. It was a fantastic weekend...hopefully we can get away more often!

That sounds so heavenly, I cannot even tell you. Good for you guys taking the time to get away and be husband and wife instead of mommy and daddy all the time (which is great too, just nice for a change!)
Oh CP you make me miss the city!!! I am actually in No Cal right now, maybe I can convince cousins a trip into the city is in order, I drove from Reno to Sac yesterday and the trek thru the mtns was so, so beautiful...
It's great to hear you got to spend some quality time alone together. It's so difficult to get that these days. Great view by the way.
I could live there married or not, with career or not, and I never did want children since I had such great nephews but I would have wanted them to visit me!
