Happy (Early) 5th Anniversary to Us!

We have been married just over 4.5 years now. I always had it in my head that we'd do a 5th anniversary trip somewhere. I had an even better idea that it'd be super cool to celebrate our 5th anniversary and Ben & Jess' 1st anniversary as our anniversaries are 5 days apart in July. Then Jess had to go get all knocked up and the trip probably wouldn't be as fun with a 3 month old baby! However, I'm super excited to meet said niece in about 6 weeks or so, so Jay and I decided to book our trip to go...next month! We figure we'll go before seeding starts, and we can use our summer vacation time to go to BC with Braden. Plus, since we already went to Maui...we just wanted a short 3 day trip somewhere. Now where's the perfect place to go for 3 nights?

Yup! This will be our 3rd trip. I'd really love to go to some other US cities like San Francisco or New Orleans...but anywhere else we'd want to make it a longer trip. We got an AMAZING deal from WestJet and Mom was excited to have Braden all to herself again. We decided to stay at Treasure Island again. We really liked it last time, mostly for it's location on the strip.

So we're going March 20-23 and we're really excited! It's always a really healthy thing for our relationship any time we can get to spend with each other sans Braden. A healthy marriage is the key to a happy family, in my opinion! It's always nice to have the opportunity to reconnect!

  1. I'm always thrilled to babysit!! I love him to bits! I'm just hoping the Bean waits until her date to arrive, otherwise Braden will be making a trip to Poppy's house! LOL

  3. Your a little jet setter!
    We wanted to do something this past summer sans kids for our 5 year too, but with Jeff in school, it just didn't happen. Guess I'll start planing for our 10th!

    Have fun!
