Anniversary Getaway.

As I've come back to this space, I've realized that a few things have been missed. Well, more than a few. But at least a few that I intended to post about. We celebrated our third anniversary this fall, which I did talk about, but I didn't manage to cover the surprise trip that we took to Bend a couple weeks later.

Since we knew that our anniversary was going to fall about a month in my crazy new school schedule and right in the middle of Taylor's travel season, we decided to set aside a weekend in November to celebrate. We also planned to simply lock ourselves in our house and hang out, since we knew that we wouldn't have the extra cash to plan something especially costly. Little did Taylor know that I had purchased a Groupon in September for a weekend away in Bend.

Since we've been married, we've really only traveled for work and to see family. We've had a night or two away here and there, but we haven't really taken a "trip." And though it was only a three hour drive for a couple nights, I was over the moon to be able to steal my love away from the rest of the world.

We had an incredible time just relaxing in our sweet little condo, watching the snow fall, eating delicious food and enjoying each other's presence. Our schedule this fall has been and continues to be pretty nuts, and we usually see each other for about an hour total during the week. To have a whole weekend together was pure bliss.
