The Last Hurrah...

We've been referring to our Savannah, GA trip as "The Last Hurrah," as if we'll never have fun again after Nolan's arrival.  Joyful times are ahead for the Vest's, no doubt, but we also know that many a sleepless night will first accompany this next season of joy.  So while it's just Jeremy and me (and I've been feeling pretty sentimental about that...), we will celebrate as best we can!  
Last weekend I finally got to open my Christmas present - a wonderful and relaxing trip to Savannah.  It was great to have a "just us" trip and to travel while I'm still able.  We stayed at a Bed & Breakfast in downtown Savannah called the Ballastone.  Highlights of the weekend included a horse-drawn carriage ride/tour, walking along the river, shopping for and eating pralines, getting a couples' massage, watching Slumdog Millionaire, listening to musicians on the River Walk, returning to our room and finding that it was full of rose petals, eating at the Olde Pink House, Vick's on the River, and the Soho South Cafe, and talking about life and our future with Nolan.
