Our 11th anniversary

Last month was our 11th anniversary. It is also the same day as Asher's birthday. So two years ago we didn't celebrate because I was obviously giving birth, and last year was his first birthday party so we didn't get out then. This year we made up for it. A little late but better than not. We went to Squaw Valley while my parents watched the kids at their house in Reno. We stayed at the Resort at Squaw Creek. It was beautiful. The pool had this great water slide that I wish the kids could have gone down. It is sometimes so hard for me to enjoy myself without the kids when all I do is think "they would love this". Although don't get me wrong, we did enjoy the peace. Our room was really nice. They upgraded us to a suite because of construction going on in our first room. They also sent a big basket full of chocolate, cheese, crackers, candy, a bottle of pellegrino, etc. and a card wishing us a happy anniversary. In the morning we rode the gondola up to the top of the mountain and enjoyed the High Camp. They have a huge pool and jacuzzi s, along with a year round ice skating rink and hiking. We had a great day up there. Then it was time to come back to reality. The kids were happy to see us again and we promissed next time they can come along.
