Our Anniversary

Teddy and I decided we wanted to do something fun to commemorate our first anniversary. So Teddy made reservations at the Anniversary Inn and at Five Alls for dinner. He wanted to do something more as well and so on Saturday morning, September 27th, (our anniversary is actually on the 28th) we hopped in the car and drove down to American Fork canyon and went to visit Cascade Springs.

Teddy had been to Cascade Springs before but I hadn't. It is very beautiful.


It was a beautiful day to be out in the sun and enjoying nature.




The leaves were changing to their brilliant colors for the fall.


After Cascade springs we started to drive down Provo canyon and then headed through Heber to Park City where we had lunch. We ate at a restaurant called Good Thymes, they have amazing banana cream pie.

Then we drove back to Salt Lake to check into the Anniversary Inn. We stayed in the Treasure Island room and while we waited until it was time to go to dinner, we watched Muppet's Treasure Island. Cheesy...yes! But it totally fit the room. I'll go into more about the room later. We then went to dinner at The Five Alls. We had heard about this restaurant but neither of us had ever been there. It has a very cool Old English feel to it and they serve 5 courses. It is pretty expensive which is why we chose to go there for a special occasion. Check out their website at http://fivealls.com/

This is a picture from just inside the entrance to the restaurant.


Now back to our stay in the Treasure Island Room. The whole room is a ship. Here we have Captain Teddy.


I went straight for the treasure.


I also tried to climb the rigging.


Here is a picture of Ted sitting on the Starboard side of the bow. The seagulls were awesome.


But then he started to lose his balance.


And plummeted head first into the water.


This is him after he got back on board. He was very wet.


Thanks Teddy for a wonderful first year of marriage. Thank you for making me laugh and putting up with my quirkiness. Thanks for all your planning to make our first anniversary memorable. I love you so much.
