Parrish Place


This last weekend, I whisked Dan away to a beautiful Bed & Breakfast here in Salt Lake City, called The Parrish Place. We haven't spent time together like this in over 2 years...and I really wanted us to be able to play, kid free! It was so much fun!!!!!! We left Thursday evening, checked in to our room, then we went out to eat at The Olive Garden. They have an amazing seafood pasta and we love their salad. On Friday we woke to a "cold breakfast", which is what they serve every morning in a basket outside your door. Everything in that breakfast was healthy and fresh and good quality, so we had breakfast in bed (so romantic, eh?!), granola with fresh fruit and cold milk, yogurt, muffin, slice of Tillamook cheese, and fresh Orange Juice. NUM! We then headed to the gym. Yes, the gym. We are trying to be healthy these days...besides later this day, we knew we had to head over the Banbury Cross for Donuts, so we had to burn it off before we sinned :)

We came home, got ready at a leisurely pace (so nice not to be rushed) and took off for the Gateway. We had lunch at Jason's Deli. This place is so yummy! They have all sorts of healthy choices, loved it! We then went to see Megamind....Funny how we see kids movies when our kids aren't even with us. I wasn't impressed with this movie, dang it. But, it was fun to be with Dan. We then dropped by Banbury Cross Donuts. This place is off of 700 East and 700 South. If you have never tried it, YOU MUST! My favorite? The apple fritter!

That evening I took Dan to Desert Star, to see Welcome Back Potter. So funny!

Saturday morning we had breakfast in bed again and then checked out and did some Christmas shopping for the kids. I love Christmas shopping! We have so much fun doing this together every year. We missed our babies while we were away!

This B & B is going to be a yearly tradition for us. The couple that runs this place are so friendly and hospitable. We absolutely loved our room (Reverie Room)!!! The house is a historic site. It was swimming in all kinds of all leaves and just looked like a picture out of a magazine, just beautiful! BEST WEEKEND EVER!
