anniversary date night

since van's birthday was the same weekend as our anniversary, we postponed our date night til the week after...

we started out at a little hole in the wall brazilian restaurant with great food and great live music. reminded us of our honeymoon.

then my hubby got us a room at the "gaylord texan" which was so perfect because we were supposed to stay there the night we got married last year. here's what happened:

we weren't leaving for our honeymoon for a few days, so he made us a reservation at the gaylord for our first night (one of the coolest hotels in dallas). so after our reception we headed on over, and his credit card declined. so we called the credit card company and it turns out someone was trying to use it in canada, so they put the card on hold and we couldn't use it. it was close to midnight by this time, so we decided to just go home. well our house was filled with guests from out of town that came for the wedding, thinking that we wouldn't be home until the next day. so needless to say, we spent our first night together as a married couple with a house full of random people...not so romantic:)so good call on the hotel choice hon, this place is awesome! cool little shops, restaurants, ponds, trees, bridges...

this is the view from the balcony in our room. all the rooms have a balcony with a nice view of the atrium down below.

then we just goofed around with the camera for a bit, walked around the resort and took some pics, and just had fun being together celebrating our first year.
so thanks for taking me out hon...it was a perfect 1st anniversary:)
