7th Anniversary

The day started off as usual.... Screaming children, poopie diapers and coffee overlooking Bass Lake.

Then something miraculous happened..

We left the kids with Nana and Grandpa and treated ourselves to a couples massage at Tenaya Lodge.

{sigh}

It was wonderful to say the least.


We followed up our massages with a little lunch on the patio at Jackalopes, the bar at Tenaya Lodge.

Connie, our waitress was quite chatty. I mentioned to her how I was in love with the French Onion Soup.

She told me that they had recently put it back on the menu.

The conversation after that went something like this:

ME: "Yeah, I know. I am the reason the onion soup is back on the menu."

CONNIE: (questionable look on her face as her eyes rolled). "Oh"

She then headed back into the kitchen.

CONNIE: (to the chef) "Hey, there is some girl on the patio that thinks she is the reason the onion soup is back on the menu."

CHEF: "Is she blond?"

CONNIE: "Yes."

CHEF: "I know who she is!!"


And my friend, the head chef at Tenaya came out to greet us at our table.

Meet Dwayne.



Then Connie arrived at our table a bit later with a chocolate cake in honor of our anniversary.

Little did she know, I am not a fan of chocolate cake.

Let's just say that our service at Tenaya Lodge has NEVER been short of fabulous!!

So, she brought me this amazing goodness on a plate, aka. creme brulee.


Notice, there are 7 dollops of whipped cream topped with 7 blueberries to represent 7 wonderful years with my amazing husband.

Tenaya is one the most amazing places. I love the spa! We're seriously thinking of moving there. Praying a spring break trip there will work out.
