10 years!!!

We celebrated 10 years this past July 20th --10 years! It sounds crazy to say that we have been married for that long, yet crazy to think about how fast it has gone by! Joel outdid himself this year...he told me he had something planned, but I figured we were just going out to dinner or something! But he did his homework this time! I came home from teaching a class and he told me to pack an overnight bag and go put it in the car. When I went to the trunk to put my bag in, I found THIS:


 Isn't it beautiful? Soooo, beats my old crappy one!

Joel arranged for my parents to come over and then whisked me away to here:
 Gainey Ranch in Scottsdale

We got all gussied up for a night on the town.
 This is his "sexy" walk. I love my husband!
 Us newlyweds
 We didn 't know where we wanted to go for dinner, but we ended up here, and it was AWESOME! I had heard good things about the Yard House, but never been. It was pricey ( for us) but we had the best crab cakes ever!!
 It was 105 degrees but we still had to get a picture by the fire.

After that, we walked around a bit, but it was dead. There isn't much to do on a Tuesday night. So, Joel entertained us:
 He is so inappropriate....hehehe....but he makes me laugh every time!


We  decided to go back to the hotel after that but we had forgotten to pack a few things, so we wanted to stop a grab them. We ended up here:

 Who wouldn't go to Target  on their anniversary night and walk around for over an hour?? We are a wild and crazy couple, that's for sure!

The next morning we ate breakfast and got ready for the pool!
 This is the balcony a top our casita!
 By the pool :)

Then, my parents dropped these crazies off so they could enjoy some swimming fun with us!
 They were so excited!
 The pool there had a big slide, and a "beach" area. It was a hit!

 The boys played in the sand and went down the slide 100 times.
 Zoey practiced being the cutest girl ever!
 She's got the lounging part down! That's my girl!

We got all cleaned up after, and Zoey found a bath just her size!

It was a great Anniversary!
