My 40th.....

Good Golly - 40 - it use to sound so old!

My birthday was spent in Hot Springs!  It was a surprise getaway weekend and it couldn't have been better!  

I didn't know where we were going until I was in the car.  This wasn't easy on Darin, I'm sure, because I kept asking questions:  what kind of clothes do I take, shoes, how long of a drive, north/south/east/west, etc.....!  He kept the secret well!

Good food, great company, a hot springs bath & a massage.....what more could a girl ask for! 

He MADE me wear this shirt;)

We stayed at this hotel!  

If you've never been there - I HIGHLY recommend it.

It has a bath house in it which makes it very convenient! 

 Cheesy?  Maybe.....but I love wax museums.  Darin was a great sport and took me to this one!

We spent some time walking Bath House Row.  

I loved looking at the architecture...so beautiful!

The Beginning of Our Saturday Morning Hike

(I was NOT told to bring tennie shoes but I survived!)

It's not easy doing self portraits!  Glad no one was filming my skills.

Steam Rising

After our hike we went window shopping!

If you know Darin, you know by looking at this pic, that he was a GREAT sport the whole weekend!

We visited this cupcake shoppe.  WOW!  The BEST cupcakes EVER!

I can tell you - the name says it all - if I lived there my bottom would definitely be FATTER!!

I just loved the rock.  Picture doesn't do it justice!

 

 

 

 

I did not want to come home:(  I did want to see my Little Man though!

He is THE best present picker out'er.

My mom said he spent A LOT of time picking out the perfect jewelry for me.  

What do you think?

He's going to make another lady very happy one day!

But, for now, he's ALL MINE!

My 40th was full of adventure and blessings!
