My suprise from Travis

Well I decided I better write down what happened when Travis surprised me with our trip to Washington for our 15th year wedding anniversary. I had a few ideas and maybe hints that we were leaving somewhere but by Sunday Travis finally told me and wrote a list of things that I needed to pack but still didn't tell me where we were going. I thought all kinds of things. Well I guess Travis had this planned since February and had my parents all lined out to watch the kids. When it got closer I thought it was strange that Travis wanted the kids tball schedules and when they had to bring treats. I got all things together for a travel on bag and we dropped the kids off at my moms at around 5:00 pm on our Anniversary June 16, 2010. I didn't even see the ticket because Travis checked us in online. So we went through security and then discovered we were going to Boise and Travis gave me this very believable story that we were going to Hawaii cause he knew a doctor with a time share and that we were going to stay at one of my dear friends and her family in Boise for the night and catch an early flight to Seattle then head to Hawaii. Well we got to Boise and then he said he was just trying to throw me off and that we were going on a red-eye flight to Hawaii from Seattle so be prepared to sleep on the plane. Well I believed that till when we got off of the plane and headed out of security and I started freaking out cause I didn't want to do security again to go to Hawaii but he just laughed and kept walking. Well needless to say we went and got the car he rented for us and we headed to a hotel at about midnight and he said that we need to leave first thing in the morning. I was like I am tired and still wasn't for sure what we were going to doing. So the next morning got up early and headed to a Ferrie where we took it with our car and headed to some beautiful beaches, waterfalls,and beautiful scenery! He said along the way we were headed to Forks Washington along with seeing all the beautiful trees, beaches, Victorian houses and so much more! We also saw Mount Olympias and a beautiful beach sand bar called The Dugness Spit with a light house on the end of it. We stayed the first night in a hotel in Seattle, then a Cute Bed and Breakfast in Forks and the last two nights in different rooms but a Bed and Breakfast in Port Angeles. We saw all the Twilight sites and ate at Bella Italia in Port Angeles. It was a wonderful trip and I cant believe that Travis has kept it a secret for so long and I thank him and my parents for helping with the kids so we could have a great Anniversary trip!
