This year, we spent the night at The Hotel Julien I won a free night stay over the holidays and thought this would be a perfect time to use it. I made reservations a few weeks ago after I talked to mom and dad to see if they could keep Cooper all night. They were super excited and couldn't wait.
So we checked into the hotel around 4:00, our room was beautiful. The hotel was remodeled a couple years ago and everything is so nice.
These are the only pictures I got of the room.
We got settled in and at 4:45 we headed down to The Potosa Spa for a couple's massage. Tom said it was the best massage he's ever had. It was awesome. After the massages we headed back up to our room, the spa was in the hotel we were staying in - that was the best part of the whole thing, we didn't have to go anywhere! It was then about 6:15 or so and we were getting hungry. We decided to bundle up and walk down to Vinny Vanucchi's for dinner. We didn't have any reservations so we had about a 45 minute wait so we went back outside across the street to Corked it's little chocolate shop that has a little wine bar as well. Win I won the free night stay at The Julien there was also a gift certificate for Corked. Since we had plenty of time to have a couple glasses of wine and some chocolate. We ended up buying a whole bottle!
After Corked, we walked back down to Vinney's and our table was just about ready. The place was packed! I ordered Steak Marsala and Tom had Veal Marsala both were delicious! We also downed another bottle of wine! It was a good night!! LOL
After dinner we walked back to the hotel and decided to go to The Riverboat Lounge which is inside the Hotel Julien. We had a few beers, a shot that someone bought for us, and a few more beers then headed back to the room. We had enough. LOL We hit the bed and were out! It was crazy not getting woke up by a crying baby, instead we had a knock on the door about 2am, some college kid asking if he could use our bathroom or something, it was the strangest thing. Tom told this kid to get lost and came back to bed.
Sunday morning, we slept in until about 8:30. I called mom and she said Cooper had a wonderful night. He did throw up his dinner, he does not like the jars of baby food anymore, that's what Grandma gave him and it all came up, sorry mom! They got him all cleaned up and he was fine. She said he slept all night, what's up with that?? He usually wakes up at least one time when he's home! Tom and I went down to Carolines for breakfast, then came back up to the room and went back to bed. It was so nice to be able to do that. Mom called about 10:30 and said they are heading down. I wanted to take Cooper in the pool and see how he liked it and he loved it!!

We had the best weekend, it was so much fun. We can't wait for next year! The best thing about our night was just about everything was right there in the Hotel. We were going to eat dinner at Caroline's as well, but they had about an hour wait and we decided to eat at Vinney's instead.
