Happy 3-Year Anniversary to Us!


To celebrate our third wedding anniversary, we booked a 24-hr, kid-free, spa getaway! Grandma and Grandpa Lund offered to come stay with the girls while we snuck away. DEAL!

Two years ago for our first anniversary, we visited a beautiful, relaxing spa/hotel in on the water up near Bellingham. At the time, I was 8 weeks' pregnant and very nauseous, and Matt had the flu, so we didn't fully enjoy the trip. So we decided to try it again this year.

We booked a night at the Chrysalis Inn, complete with massage appointments and a pedicure for myself. After our massages we found an amazing little tapas restaurant in town for dinner. It was so luxurious to sit and enjoy a lengthy meal at a grown-up restaurant. The food was amazing, and it reminded us of the many tapas we enjoyed during our honeymoon in Spain.

The beautiful view from our suite.

The next day we slept in, ate a great breakfast, and headed back toward Seattle (with one quick stop at the outlet mall). We were very excited to get home and see the girls, but we did appreciate our time away. We got a little greedy and started dreaming of two nights away. We might need to call for back-up for Grandma and Grandpa, though. The girls have a LOT of energy!
