Our Fourth Anniversary Part #3

So at Lovers' Pointe we climbed out on some rocks and actually got someone to take our picture. This man had a beautiful accent, which we found out was from Germany, close to the Austria Border... Any who side story on that, I find it so amazing that most foreigners, (except the majority of those from Mexico), can speak such good English. This man and all those with him spoke perfect English... Any who, if you are even in the Lovers' Pointe area I recommend not wearing a skirt to go climbing around on the rocks, it was a little troublesome at times.

Our Photographer even moved around so the backgrounds would be different... Picture of my Studly Husband. This picture is an exact replica of one of our Wedding photos. I wish I could scan it and put them side by side... Just me...
Another picture of us, notice the different background! :)
Chris posed me for this one, I really like it. I had to wear my glasses all weekend because my allergies actually got worse in Cali. So in this picture I'm squinting because I took my glasses off and I could barley see Chris. (I'm quite blind)






Another picture of my studly guy with the ocean in the background...


On our walk after Lovers' Pointe we ran into all of these pink flowers. They were all over the place and beautiful! I wish flowers like this grew here in Vegas so abundantly....

The pink flowers up close!


And Chris made me stand here for another picture!


After walking most of the day we got into our car and started driving around. We turned down a road to look at the houses and look what we found? There was a mother deer and her two children just munching on some lawn! We drove by and I made Chris turn around so we could get a good picture. They looked up at us and kept eating. I would love to walk out of my house one day and see this... Perhaps one day....

We got onto Highway 1 and drove for quite a while. The views from this highway is AMAZING and so gorgeous! We stopped at one location and took these pictures!



After our drive we headed back to the hotel and relax for a while. Then Chris started looking up some restaurants and trying to find a good one for us to have our Anniversary Dinner at. I got really hungry and opted for the closest location instead of the one that seemed the nicest. So we went to Willies Bar B Que. I love Bar B Que and carbs so of course it was a good choice. The food was okay, we wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone and probably wont go back, however we were able to have a nice dinner with out Ethan banging his fork on his plate and yelling... So it was nice, however a couple was seated next to us with a young boy and it reminded me of Ethan... Chris noticed and offered to call Ethan so we could talk to him. So we did and Ethan talked for a little while until I told him to be good for Grandma and Grandpa and then he was off the phone! After dinner we walked around trying to find a cheaper place for Ice Cream and then headed to the bookstore for a good hour and then back to the hotel room. Once again we missed free breakfast on Sunday morning, but I didn't mind. I was able to sleep in again... Until we were woken up by our neighbors... (this is a funny story, but not worthy of blogging about it) We checked out of the hotel and did some more walking and ran into...A beach full of seals. We stood there and watched them for a while, they are so cute... But ugly at the same time. I think their faces are cute, but they don't match their bodies! After walking for quite a while we went to get some ice cream and ran into a bike race. We ate our ice cream and watched the ran for a while and then we decided to drive around again... This drive was beautiful once again, we got to see a beach with bigger waves and even more beautiful house. We even got to see where I would love to live one day, or maybe just my summer house! :) Then we headed to the airport.
We noticed when we landed there was a restaurant with all windows so you could see the planes and the ocean... We decided for dinner we would just eat there. We got up to the restaurant and had to wait for a seat. Apparently this is the place to go to Celebrate in Monterey! Then when we were seated we noticed that the cheapest thing on the menu was about $17... So Chris and I split the Spaghetti and Meatballs, which was heavenly and then went and waited for our flight to leave. This trip was very relaxing and much needed, although I wouldn't admit to that before we went.... I love spending time with my husband, just the two of us. It reminds me of the times we were dating and just confirms the reasons I married him. He is still the same guy I knew when we were dating and I love him so much for that! Thanks babe for a great weekend!
