While Scott and I were on our honeymoon, we made a decision to always take a trip on our anniversary so we could always make it a big celebration! So a few months ago Scott contacted his family's travel agent telling her what we were wanting. She did great finding Jade Mountain for us so we're letting her take over from now on! She emailed us back with some options, we fell in love with one of them, and decided to go with it!
So Scott went to his boss and told him our plans and his boss said no!! WHAAAAT? He said that was their most busy time and we'd have to go sometime between March and May because that's when they're slow. Ugh...you can't even imagine my rage. I cried even. Not at Scott....just his ridiculous work schedule. (Remember the night he came in at 4 am only to get up and go back to work at 8 am? Yeah....) So we're taking our trip later. We're booking tomorrow. I'll post where we're going tomorrow! SO our anniversary weekend rolls around the corner and I'm really sad because I always imagined us to be away celebrating it somewhere. Not eating at Bonefish, Bordinos, or Theos like we do every weekend. So I start internet searching and decided we just needed to go to VEGAS!! But I wanted to make sure we were there on Sunday since that was our actual anniversary date so Scott needed to take Monday off. So he asked his boss and again...he said NO!! Ugh. Like....SO MAD. Again...not at Scott.
Well, I think Scott realized how important it was for me to be away. Everyone has their things that are important to them and celebrating our anniversary in a really big way is very important to me. I never want that day to be an ordinary day for us. So Scott talked to me about going to Memphis or Dallas or Kansas City for the weekend and while all three places I love, they're all 5 hours away and we'd spend our anniversary driving in a car since Scott just couldn't miss work on Monday. (ugh)
So by Saturday I had given up. I went over to Jaclyns and was super sad. I came home and Scott wasn't there. ??? About 45 minutes later he showed up with a bottle of this


Scott booked us the best room at the Crescent Hotel which was so beautiful! It was built in the late 1800's and totally looked like it on the inside! Very Victorian, old & restored, just very historic! So cool.






All in all it was a really fantastic weekend. It was very simple but very perfect because it was just me and Scott and really great food! We had such a great time. No internet access, no working on the laptop, no worries. Just us! The way it should be all the time. I wouldn't change it for anything. Not even our beach trip or Vegas. It was simply perfect. I've had the best year of my life. I've got my buddy! My best friend all the time. He takes care of me and makes me feel safe. They say the first year is the hardest. If so then I feel really great about all of the years ahead because the first year was absolutely fabulous!
