amazing anniversary

ยท

Our return to Union, Washington for our anniversary was perfect.  I'm not exaggerating.  We got sunshine (again), amazing views, great food, luxurious lodging, lots of laughter and romantic (kid-free) quality time together.  I think Christa would agree that it was the perfect celebration of the perfect wedding.  Call me biased if you will.

The venue where we got married, Alderbrook Inn, changed hands in the 8 years since we were there last.  A Microsoft big-wig evidently bought the place and put 23 million dollars into it!  Now it's called Alderbrook Resort and Spa; talk about a serious makeover.  So we had our dinner there and visited the grounds where we had our ceremony, but we were glad to stay at a familiar place down the road called the Selah Inn.   The Selah Inn Bed & Breakfast is a cozy little bed-and-breakfast where we spent the first night of our honeymoon. 

There were NO disappointments at all in the meal OR the accommodations.  And just look at my beautiful wife…can't say enough about being married to her.  I'm a very, very lucky guy.

Here's some photos we took.  For those of you who went to our wedding, you wouldn't believe all the changes they've made to Alderbrook.  It's a pretty plush establishment now so I'm glad we got in there when we did.  It's fun to go back and relive such great matrimonial memories.

  3. Happy Anniversary!! (a little late) So glad you had such a good time, you deserve it. I am feeling a bit jealous and slightly depressed that you guys are in WA and we’re not there so we can’t see you! We love you and miss you all.

  4. the place looks awesome. Washington looks awesome. Could you post a wedding photo? Not sure I ever saw them. Wish I could have made it out there for that…

  5. crissy: ironically enough, we don’t have any pictures from our wedding..online! we have TONS in print and negatives, but nothing digital. if i can scan a few (we don’t have a scanner but christa’s parents do) i’ll post some.

    p.s. thanks so much for the gift. that was very kind of you and the mr. we really appreciate it. it’s great being home.
