Jarrad looks like a monkey in this pic. :)

This past Sunday, Jarrad and I celebrated our 12 year anniversary! Instead of getting each other something we usually go on a fun trip or night away. This year, it was really hard for us to figure out what to do. We couldn't decide between doing something adventurous or relaxing. After searching on the internet forever I came across a place called The Double JJ Ranch. It was 3 1/2 hours away and it was a resort that had indoor water slides, golf and horseback riding. We decided to give it a try because it sounded like a lot of fun.

The resort indoor waterpark was great. We did that first and had a blast. It wasn't crowded at all, so we walked on to every slide. It was quite a workout going up all those stairs though, Jarrad had it worse since he was stuck carrying up the double tube. :) We then had an awesome steak dinner at the resort, it was so good I didn't even use steak sauce! That's huge for me...I love my A1 steak sauce.

Now onto our cabin...it was pretty ghetto. The cabin itself was pretty cute, but if I'd been thinking about it I would've taken pictures to post. It stated on the website that it had a queen size bed. We we got there we found out the Queen size bed was two twin beds put together with a queen sheet to connect the two beds. Nice, huh? The curtains were made out of burlap sacks and were completely see thru...extra nice touch! If made for some funny conversation and we laughed a lot about it. The tv was really fuzzy and had crap channels, so decided to drive 30 minutes and see the movie Friends with Benefits.

The best part of the whole trip was the horseback riding we did on Saturday. It was an hour ride and it was beautiful! My horse Mater was the sweetest thing and was such a good horse. Jarrad's horse Regal was complete opposite of mine and had quite the attitude. Seemed like a good match to me. :) We did a trotting ride and a little bit of a canter, which knowing how rough trotting was, we definitely would have picked canter the next time....much smoother! It was a blast and we wanted to go again as soon as we got back, but we needed to head back home.

We're not sure if we'll ever go back again, but we had a great time together! It was fun and sooo much better than doing the traditional date thing of just movie and dinner. Here's to another fun filled 12 years!
