5 years of bliss

Can't believe I've been married for five years already, isn't that crazy? This year was Randy's turn to plan the anniversary, so he surprised me with a night at the Great Wolf Lodge! This place is designed for kids and I felt like one while I was there. We had races in the halls, hopscotch on the carpet, and dance-offs in the elevator. We had a crazy fun time!He reserved us a Luxury King Balcony suite. Man, that bed was huge! I couldn't even touch Randy on the other side.

This was the view from our room's balcony. We had a blast going down the Tornado water slide that's lit up in the back.

I loved the antler chandelier!
The first thing we did was play in the indoor waterpark. This is a pic of the kid area. Complete with a large bucket that dumps 1,000 gallons of water on children every few minutes. Yeah, we totally stood under it to get dumped on. The only mishap we had was going down the tornado water slide. When sliding up the sides and coming back down to the water in the middle, it creates kind of an entering-a-wake effect and my foot bounced up and hit Randy right in the knee. Hurt both of us pretty bad, but we kept sliding anyway. I have to say, I was really missing my baby when I was there. I kept saying, "Tripp would have fun on that." I even wanted to go pick him up from Grandma's so he could be with us.My rexy hubby in front of part of the wave pool and other fun toys-that you can't really see in the pic.

We absolutely loved this fireplace! We played a few games of cards in front of it.

This is what happens when you ask strangers to take your pic-blurry pics. After he took it, he even told us he had steady hands. I guess just not when he was taking our pic :(

We hit up the arcade as well. Skeeball is my favorite game. We got enough tickets to get a handful of tootsie rolls.

We had dinner, in a TENT! I told Randy that this was my kind of camping. We told the waitress it was our anniversary and she came out with these balloons tied to a cup full of gummy worms and bears-and then brought another cup asking us if we wanted more. Of course we want more!

We got to watch these robotic creatures sing and dance for us at "storytime" before bedtime.

We also played a game of checkers with these massive boards.

Pic of the lobby. The wolf on the roof was probably my favorite.

I really enjoyed my anniversary vacation this year and not sure how I'm going to top it next year. Thank you hubby for a fantabulous night!
