Weekend Anniversary Trip

Well all I am out of here for the weekend. It is our 5th anniversary on the 4th and I am surprising my hubby with a fun trip to a mountain resort for the weekend. The traditional gift for the 5th anniversary is wood and I couldn't think of anything to do with that so I decided to take him to the woods. That works right??!

He has no idea too, and that is the best part. He thinks I am simply taking him out to dinner tonight, although I wonder why he thinks I am taking him to dinner for our anniversary the night before our anniversary! I can't wait to see his face! Stick out tongue
