getaway

Last week Chris suggested we look for a fun place to stay for this Labor Day weekend. At first it was a no-go as things were very expensive. Enter some super old credit card rewards points we forgot we even had. Bingo! We found an awesome place out in Indian Wells and had a great 24 hour getaway!

I got some solid magazine-by-the-pool relaxing in. LOVED this. The first day I sat right by the pool while the kids swam.

The next morning I sat right by the pool on a lounge chair watching the kids. Sidenote #1: Allrecipes is my current favorite cooking magazine. Sidenote #2: Yes, it was actually a tad chilly in the shade...hence my towel blanket.

Pooped after swimming!

We went to The Cheesecake Factory for dinner.

This is the dish (Spicy Cashew Chicken) that Chris had on his very first trip to the restaurant back on our honeymoon. I had already been at that point and suggested we try it. It was on that trip that our love affair truly began. :)

This morning Chris went to pick up breakfast while we explored the hotel grounds.

Now we are back home and one of the best parts of this vacation is that it's not over!! A three day weekend is GRAND! Even better is that we don't have any plans tomorrow! Woohoo! :)
