And a fabulous anniversary it was...but how could it not be when you have a husband as wonderful as I have?!?!
We were both fortunate to have the day of our anniversary and the following one off from work.
On the day of, we went to Boulder, CO to the Celestial Seasonings plant for a tour! It was quite the lovely day...sparkling snow and lots of sunshine!
Mr. SleepyTime himself
The plan was to go home and dress up a bit before going downtown to enjoy dinner on the town. But, on the way Dan said, "I don't feel like going all the way home to get dressed...lets just go downtown from here." "Ok." I said, feeling grungy and bit annoyed about not being able to freshen up. But downtown we went despite what I wanted. (It's our anniversary Tess, good grief, get over yourself and enjoy your time!)
Downtown we walked when suddenly Dan said, "Hey, I hear this hotel has a "hush-hush" restaurant upstiars...stay here while I see if it's legit." So I waited. "Uh huh...." I thought as I watched the lady at the desk hand Dan something. He came and got me and said, "Great! It's Italian!" But I was starting to put two and two together.
All decked out for Christmas!
This is what he got! A FABULOUS room on the 16th Street Mall! Nice one babe! And, to top it off, the day before, he dropped off a suitcase of clothes!
Houndstooth carpeting...cool right?!!?
The fantastic ceiling
So we freshened up and dressed up before enjoying a nice dinner! What a dear.....
Oh, I failed to mention that the hotel gave us a completely complimentary breakfast at the Rialto Cafe that is attached to the hotel...YUM!
Cappuccino...mmmmm
The next day we headed up to the mountains! Snow....snow....snow....BEAUTIFUL!
Yes folks, those are Bison!
:)
What a relaxing anniversary. It was wonderful to be together and just spend time deepening our relationship with each other. The old folks were right! Marriage does just keep getting better and better! I love you so much Dan...the Lord has blessed me more that I could ever deserve!
aren't surprises from the husband the best thing in the world!! Nick did the same for our 11th anniversary back on the 7th of January:). We went to Indy and he even got a babysitter which maybe someday you will know just how much that actually means for your husband to find the sitter:). Happy LATE anniversary! Im hoping I sent a card, but I'll be honest...I don't remember if I did or not??
