Weekend getaway.

Jan 21, 2014

A couple of months back Ryan and I had our 10 year anniversary. We decided we were going to go to Las Vegas in February to celebrate, but then as time passed we got responsible and decided that putting that money towards debt was a better idea. Then one of the home builders that Ryan does soil bearing tests for sends a bunch of people to Kalispell for their Christmas party. We had to pay $100 for two nights in a really nice hotel, and then we got 2 free breakfasts and a really nice dinner. We decided to take advantage and went this past weekend. McKenna went to Adam and Britt's and the other three went to the farm. It was so nice to get away for the weekend just the two of us.

We made it to Kalispell on Friday right around dinner time so we went to eat at the Mackenzie River Pizza Company, which was really, really good. Then we checked into the hotel and just watched t.v and lounged for the evening. They were having a poker tournament in one of the ball rooms but we had no desire to check it out. We did a little shopping at Target on Saturday and went for lunch at Hu-Hot, another favourite of ours. Its all you can eat stir fry. Then we went to a movie in the afternoon. We went and saw Jack Ryan and it was really good. We had some time to kill before the movie after lunch so we went into the big sports store and I ended up finding a new winter coat. It was the last one and it was my size and was on sale. It felt like it was meant to be. I've had the same coat for like 15 years, so I am very excited about this new one. I really, really love it. After the movie we went back to the hotel and started getting ready for the big dinner and dance that the home builder puts on. The food was amazing and we had a lot of fun at the dance. I love to dance. Ryan isn't much of a dancer but I got him out on the dance floor a couple of times. We stayed until midnight. When we left there were still a lot of people there. I don't know how they do it. Up all night partying and drinking. Its crazy. I was done by midnight and ready to go to sleep. We slept in Sunday morning and then packed up and headed home. It was Ty's birthday so we wanted to get home so we could spend his birthday with him. We had a really amazing time. My favourite thing was just relaxing and not having a busy schedule. It was so nice. We definitely want to make it a tradition and do it again next year. So I guess we will count that as our anniversary celebration. It was perfect.

  1. What??? You didn't enter the poker tournament:) Nice to get away. We were debating seeing that movie. Good to know you liked it. It was between that and Saving Mr. Banks. But both sold out.
