celebrating our fifth anniversary.

Erik and I went on a mini vacation to celebrate our fifth anniversary. I can hardly believe it has been five years already, but it has and we spent a couple nights at Harrison Hot Springs to celebrate. We planned it a few days before we went -- a last minute deal easily convinced us.

The holiday was all-to-brief, but it was wonderful. We only had one full day in Harrison and we decided to go on a hike. We did was is unofficially known as the "Harrison Grind". It rained a wee bit but we spent most of our time in the forest. Apparently Erik didn't get the "I'm planning on doing a hike memo" so he only had jeans to hike in. We only hiked for 4.5 hours instead of doing the full thing, but we did the hardest part and got a lovely view from where we ended so it was well worth it.

We didn't do much aside from hiking. We slept. We lounged in the pools. We swam laps. We ate delicious food. We enjoyed being just the two of us again. It has been a while and after almost seven months of constant companionship I was really missing my husband.

Can I just say that I love buffet breakfasts? Like really really love them. I always eat way too much, but how can you not with unlimited bacon?? Yummmm.Harrison Hot Springs - August 2013

Awesome! We are also doing this for our getaway and were looking at this very hike last night but thought it was too long for our 24 hours away so we are going to do a shorter one with a view...more like 2 hours:) I don't normally like kissing pictures but I really like that one.
