Happy 5 year Anniversary!

On March 26th Scott and I celebrated our 5th anniversary! We decided a while ago that we were not going to anything considering all that is going on with us right now. We are trying so hard to save money to get our own home again and it's been really challenging! So with all of the stress going on in our lives and trying to find a house we took a trip anyway to help alleviate some of our stress. And it worked, for the first few days at least! Last year we went to Lake Tahoe and had an amazing time and we think this is our anniversary spot! I love it there so much that I am seriously considering moving there and being a snow bum!

On our 8 hour drive I was totally relaxed reading a book and enjoying the scenery. And after that drive when I finally woke my butt up, we walked the beach at the lake, had dinner and sat in a hammock watching the sun set. So amazing to just relax!
The next morning it was snowing so we decided to go sight seeing. We walked around some historic parts of the Tahoe area and had a blast! Walking into shops with small isles, glass and all kinds of fun stuff to look at without the worry of children breaking everything is sight was bliss. However, with every child I saw, I really did miss my kiddos. Anyway, we took a gondola up the Northstar mountain to the Ritz after all our walking around.
We warmed up by the fire and just talked for a long time enjoying each other as much as we could. It was a great opportunity to unwind and remember all those things about one another that we like and grew to love and eventually try to change! hahaha
On our actual anniversary we went snowboarding! This was more his gift to me since he likes it but I LOVE IT! After all the fresh powder it was the best boarding ever and no one was on the mountain! We literally had the thing to ourselves for a few hours.
The views were amazing and we stopped to build a snowman and just take a breather.
And we wanted to keep going but we had to stop for our dinner reservations.

Sorry, this picture was a must do, this was our anniversary so we had to kiss all day long!
We ate at a very fancy fine dining restaurant and had a great view of the lake! The food was so amazing that we asked each other if it would be trashy of us to lick our plates? hahaha Oh well, we did!
They knew we were celebrating our anniversary so the surprised us with dessert and it was delicious!
To end a great day we enjoyed another walk on the beach.
And we ended the night with making smores! I have not done that in so long that I was so excited to be goofy with my man! We then sat by the fire all night and relaxed and snuggled. A great trip overall. THEN.... wait for it..... du du dunnnnnnn!

Scott's truck breaks down in the middle of nowhere! A total Seinfeld episode here. We broke down in a no cell reception area, finally make it to a gas station and the phone there does not dial long distance and the meth head who is the clerk there has some ducktaped phone that does not dial the numbers 3, 6, or 5! So dialing 951 was out of the question! Sucked so bad, but after hours of waiting, his mom rescued us and we made it home to our most greatest accomplishments ever! It was great because I could not wait to see them so of course I go in and wake Hannah up, she is groggy and says goodnight and then looks up and jumps out of bed saying "Mommy! Daddy!" and big hugs all around. Oh, they make life worth living!
