So Friday was our 5 year wedding Anniversary and we decided it was finally time to get away just the two of us. We planned on Sedona and our good wonderful amazing friends the Bartons tackled our kids for us from Thursday night to Saturday afternoon. We had a great first night there and planned to SLEEP IN since we had no kids to interrupt our slumber... only problem was I FORGOT TO PLAN FOR THE KID GROWING IN MY BELLY!! (YES I AM PREGNANT YEAH!!!) I woke up at 7:30 STARVING and needing to go potty then I could not fall asleep. Adam had a different story. He is coming of a pretty mild pain medication that he has relied on for a whole year to calm his stomach issues from the pancreatits and about a week ago decided to be done with it COLD TURKEY. Well this means he can't calm down and even though he is so tired unless he takes something small he can't relax enough to get into deep sleep, and of course his medicine for sleeping fell out of his pocket somehow before we left.
When we got up, we forced smiles on our faces, ate a REALLY expensive breakfast and trudged around the town pretending to be interested but really just wanting to get back to sleep. I wasn't feeling good because I am only 10 weeks along, he wasn't feeling good cuz he didn't sleep well, we were both hungry and tired and ultimately the day was sort of a bust. We basically spent our anniversary in two separate rooms watching two different shows. It was pretty pathetic.
We did however sleep in the next morning (almost missed check out time) and ended our trip hanging out with the Bartons and our kids and it turned out OK. We rushed back to Gilbert to drop our kids off yet again to our wonderful friends the Batchelors while we went to see the play my cousin Rob is in at the Hale Centre Theatre "Little Shop of Horrors" which was REALLY funny and a great end to our weekend.
Once we got home we decided never to leave again unless we are NOT SICK. Even though we didn't have a great anniversary day, it comes down to the fact that I would rather spend time with him doing NOTHING than being apart from him. He is so amazing and I am so excited for the next of FOREVER.
Love you Husband!!!
