Next month is my 20th anniversary. Mark and I have been talking about what to do for over a year now. In the beginning, we talked about Paris. But then realized that we would not have anyone to babysit for a week. Then I wanted to go to Hawaii and renew our vows. All of us. Kids included. Mark had to talk me down from that one! The cost! And we're working on become debt free!
So then we decided to stay in the Phoenix area and take advantage of the fabulous summer deals (who wants to be in Phoenix with 100-125 degree high temperatures?) But as the weeks have gone by, my inner voice has been whispering. Don't stay in Phoenix. Do something a bit more special. Get out of town. Nothing crazy. But out of town. Cabin in the wine country 2 hours north of San Francisco? Too far. Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego? Too expensive. Big Bear? Not enough to do. Disneyland? Mark won't even talk about it. Sedona, Tucson, Las Vegas, Portland.......
Today we booked a room in Palm Springs at the Movie colony Hotel. I'm so excited to spend a few days alone with my hubby. Thanks Mom for watching the kids!
Super cute. Unique. Downtown. Near our favorite Starbucks (yes, we have them ranked all over the country). And close to many places for a day trip adventure. Anyone been to Santa Barbara? A co-worker said it's a cute town. Any advice? Just checked out Mapquest and it's a 3.5 hour drive from Palm Spring. Might be too far. I would love any suggestions.
Check back tomorrow for my Sketch Wednesday.
