Happy Anniversary!

I can't believe it, two years has gone by so fast! In celebration of another 365 days of bliss, Chris planned a wonderful weekend in Salt Lake City full of suprises and fun.

We got started Friday night with a midnight showing of Batman: The Dark Knight. Despite the late hour the 400 seat theatre was sold out and we had to fight a gang of skater boys for two seats on the front row. The movie was great and we got to bed about 2:45 am - boy do we know how to live it up!

On saturday we slept in late and headed off to Salt Lake about noon. Our check in time at the hotel wasn't until 3 so we had a fun lunch at The Training Table. We think Logan could use a franchise . . .

Chris got us a room at the Anniversary Inn at the Salt City Jail. We stayed in the Italian Gondola Suite which came complete with a huge boat bed. From the bench seat you could watch movies on the big screen TV or cuddle with your honey :)

The bed was kind of tall and tricky to get out of, almost like a real boat on water.


For dinner we went to The Melting pot, which is the same restaurant Chris took me to for our first Valentine's day. We had a very filling meal and then went to a play at the Hale Center Theatre.





Sunday Morning we got to sleep in again and we decided for our Sunday observance we would walk around Temple Square and we even took a tour of the Conference Center. It was the only way to get up to see the roof, but boy was it bright and HOT up there.

After our tour we were ready to head home to the AC and our own bed. It was great to get away, but good to come home too.


On Monday we both took out actual anniversary (7/21) off of work and hung around being lazy. We took in a matinee of Journey to the Center of the Earth, which was suprisingly not horrible. We still like each other and it's been a great two years. We look forward to 50 or 60 more together.

Does a goatee make me look creepy?

Going to Batman was a last minute thing that had less to do with our anniversary than with me not wanting to wait till Monday :P The kids we sat next to happened to be drunk and one had to leave to go throw up.

Blaire, I love your hair.

So, truth or dare, if you care, I've something to share, it's about a fair with a bear that makes you stare at its flair.

BTW!!!!

For all you ladies who think to throw my supposedly awsome planning skills in your mens faces, beware of total mental meltdown due to unreasonable and highly stressful expectations. About a month before our anniversary I was literally pulling my hair out trying to think of what to do. It got so bad that I had Blaire PROMISE me that I'd never have to do it again and that from now on we will plan this stuff together.

If your man stresses out about such plans as this, it means he loves you and can't think of anything good enough. Please take it as a compliment.
