John and I actually had our 17th wedding Anniversary on Dec. 27, 2013. But we both had colds and kids were out of school and it was crazy being right after Christmas. So, we decided to celebrate after kids were back in school. We literally picked up In N Out for dinner on our Anniversary as a family and that was it :)
So, this week we drove out to Midway for a day and made the best of our day.
First stop was lunch at the Blue Boar Inn. It was really good. It is also a Bed and Breakfast, that we would love to stay at some day. But the best part was that we were the only customers in there while we were there. The place was completely empty!!! No worry about where to sit for John :) After lunch they even showed us 5 of their rooms.
Then we went to get pedicures. And no I did not have to talk John into it. He was actually very excited and willing. And now he is totally addicted and can't wait for another. It was so fun to sit and relax. And as we were sitting there, it started to snow these perfect huge snowflakes.
Out last stop of the day was the Ice Castles. We drove by them a few years ago and have wanted to go see them. I was so glad they came back this year. The company travels and does not always go to Midway. It was amazing and so fun to see them. Apparently at night time it is way better. But, it was still really neat. And barely any one there. It was snowing the whole time we were there. I took a ton of pictures and was so amazed and how they can form these.
Maybe next year we will be able to escape for more than a few hours!
