The Royal Treatment

Last weekend Jeremy and I headed to Wendover to celebrate our anniversary of 7 1/2 years. Why the 1/2 you ask? Because our actual anniversary is May 9th, which is also the week of Jeremy's birthday, my mom's birthday, one of my sister's birthdays, and usually Mother's Day. (Yeah, that was not such a great job on planning our wedding date.) So we've been celebrating on the half years, and it's been working out a lot better.

Anyway, we got to Wendover and checked into our Mini-Suite, complete with jetted tub. Except we were disappointed to discover that the jets were not working. They sent someone up to look at it, but couldn't get it working and informed us that we would have to switch rooms. We were a little bummed, but no big deal, and we headed down to the front desk to get our new keys. We arrived at the new room, and opened the door to find this:


I didn't even know they had rooms this nice in Wendover! Turns out we'd been upgraded to the Presidential Suite. The sign on the back of the door said the regular rate on the room was $600.00 a night.


We paid $89.00. And the jets worked.


It was so nice to chill and relax, let life slow down a little, and remember just how much I love being married.

Later in the week, Hayley had a little royal treatment too. After seeing Hillcrest High's excellent production of Cinderella, we attended their Princess Tea Party. After picking up her autograph book and princess pen, and eating some excellent sugar cookies, Hayley posed for some pictures with the Fairy Godmother:

The Stepmother and Stepsisters:

And Cinderella and the Prince:

She also got to ride in the Princess Carriage from the play, while it was all lit up, and they had a professional photographer there to take pictures of all the little princesses, and then they are going to mail the pics out to us next week.



Such a fun time, and it was good practice with the characters.

Since we're headed to Disneyland again in March!!!
