Staycation 2009 at the Hotel VP!

A couple of weekends ago our good friends Mike and Beka Van Pelt hosted a fabulous staycation weekend at their home in Irvington. 2 other couples - the Palmquists, and the Soaseys, made for a merry bunch. Lots of laughter and good times. We all shipped our babes off to the grandparents house and enjoyed some adult time with some fun friends. I have to say, the accomodations at the Hotel VP were outstanding. Chris and I scored the master suite and enjoyed the heated floors in the master bath, the peep-through fireplace from the bedroom to the bathroom. Beka welcomed all of us with a little welcome bag for our room. She is the hostess with the mostest, hand down.

We went to a bouldering gym, crammed into a photo booth for pics, and did some chocolate tasting at Cacao. It was a great time and great memories.

We took the max and walked over to Cacao for a delicious chocolate flight and other treats.

Here with our drinking chocolate. My favorite was the dark choc with chili peppers.
