Weekend at Arrowhead Manor
What a weekend! We started off on Friday morning and headed to Denver. We were planning a quick stop at Wendy's for lunch....but went past a Red Robin and couldn't resist! We had their specials for 5.99...awesome. And we got stuffed by topping it off sharing a Rookie Magic milkshake. I'm drooling with the memory! Next we did some Christmas shopping, and we were both pleased with the outcome. A quick stop at Sonic for a tasty drink and we headed up the mountain a bit to our bed and breakfast, Arrowhead Manor. We stayed for two nights. We watched movies using the TV and surround sound setup in our room. The Manor had free movie rentals and free popcorn! Our room also had a private jacuzzi tub and massage bed! After a relaxing night, we headed down to the great room for a delicious breakfast (Crunchy french toast, omelet, potatoes, fresh fruit, pastries, juice). After breakfast we headed out to see the nearby town of Conifer, and then went for a hike. It was a beautiful day. We ate lunch in our room followed by football and a nap. Then headed into Denver (only about 15 minutes away)...did a bit more shopping, hit a matinee movie, and topped it off with dinner at Applebees. Turns out the Applesbees cooks were struggling big time...we were within earshot of about 4-5 tables who ended up getting something for free! We could have as my meal was brought out wrong, twice. I ended up just putting it in a box and taking it with us...which was okay since we all know its better to eat S-L-O-W-L-Y when you are pregnant! Ha! After dinner we tried to walk it off by shopping at Babies-R-Us for two "coming home" outfits, one boy, one girl. It was fun to pick them out together and anticipate our little one. We had another relaxing evening followed by another mouthwatering breakfast (bacon, eggs, potatoes, country fried steak and gravy, fresh fruit, muffins...yum!). The weekend was a wonderful time to hang out together...something we haven't been able to do in a long time! An added bonus...I never threw up and felt pretty decent all weekend! :)
