Issac took the kids to church Sunday morning and left me feeling miserable and clutching a bowl. I knew that we were beyond our time frame for being able to cancel and not have to pay for the room anyway, so I forced myself up while they were gone and packed our little bags. When Issac got home he could tell that I wasn't doing any better and made some comment about being glad that his birthday was yesterday so that we didn't miss any of my plans! OOOOPPPPSSSS! I tried to smile and let him know that that wasn't completely true. I told him that his birthday weekend wasn't entirely over yet. ( The biggest part was still to come ).
He had no idea where we were going. I just plugged in the address to the GPS and told him to follow the directions as I held my big blue bowl on my lap and concentrated on my breathing. He was totally surprised and felt so bad for me that I was sick. I figured at least I could lay in a big bed and not have to have the constant questions from my kids all night. It was a beautiful room and we will definitely have to go back some time when we are both feeling well!
We got to stay in one of their most expensive rooms, Romeo & Juliet! It was incredible with this huge stairway going up to the bed.
The decorations they had out were so cute. The room came with sparkling cider and two pieces of cheese cake as well.
We took full advantage of this huge jacuzzi tub since it was one activity that actually made me feel a little bit better. It was really cool, the water sprinkled down from above and was almost like being in a waterfall.
I'm not sure you can really see it in this picture, but I also ordered some rose petals that they sprinkled all over the room and some chocolate dipped strawberries.
It was a fun night, just not quite as fun as I had planned. Issac ended up going out at about 8 at night to try and find us something that I could eat. He brought back some soup and crackers and 7 up. He is such an amazing husband and I am so lucky to be able to spend every day with him, not just the special one's. I love you baby! Happy Birthday.

Gorgeous ROOM! Man, that's awesome! I'm so so so so sorry you were sick, that just plain sucks! You are such a sweet wife Paige!
How fun! I also know the dangers of pre-booking fabulous vacations. We reserved a room at a fancy bed and breakfast in Maine for my birthday in Feb, and of course there was a giant snowstorm the night we had to drive. It took us 6 hours to go 150 miles. I also threw my back out the day before and was excruciating pain and Ryan had a cold. What a fun birthday! At least we didn't lose our money :)
Cool room!
Sorry you were sick, but at least you were able to recover in totally luxury and relax without the noise of 4 kids.
There is seriously something to be said for not having the kids around when you have the flu...even if it ends up costing you a pretty penny. :) That room is incredible! Hope you get to do it again on a better night...you know, to take advantage of those other plans...
