I don't know, a holiday by myself or with friends sounds awful -- either lonely or unbearable (I've found time with friends is best in short bursts). I'd rather not blow thousands of dollars of our money and spend time away from her (so she has to do everything around the house and take care of the kids) for something that she really doesn't get a lot out of.

Granted, we've only been married a year, but it doesn't seem really fair or even like something I'd be interested in doing.
Here's the kicker. I never went anywhere without my wife, for the first 3/4 years. We traveled the tropics and Europe 2wice a year. It was awesome! Then came the kids...

Trust me, getting away for a breather is so refreshing...

To be honest, we started this when a few of my friends did a surprise bday party in Peurto Vallarta. My wife then went with her friends to PV as well. (It was a "ok you get a vacation then I get one). It was cool caus the other would take the kids when you were away. And now we've never looked back. I'm already booked for a 7 day cruise next March and she's going on a cruise in April. The week is refreshing and plus you get a little time with your friends.
