Celebrating fourteen years of marriage!


Jeff and I travelled to Nisswa, MN to Grand View Lodge for our 14th Anniversary. I LOVE spending time with my husband and love seeing new places with him.

Grand View Lodge has been around for a very long time and I believe is more well know for being a meeting place for families. There are multitudes of lakeside cabins, with all kinds of planned lake activities. We enjoyed playing shuffleboard, tennis and going for bike rides.


We ate outside by the lake one evening and enjoyed some foo-fooey pizza along with live music.


The Lodge was gorgeous, especially at night. You can see the chairs in this picture as they had just finished a wedding.



They upgraded us for free to a three bedroom cabin, which actually downgraded us from a King-size bed to a double and just made us wish our kids were with us since we had all those extra beds. We had a great kitchen to have our own private, lazy breakfasts.



This was Jeff's secret, deep inner frustration showing when his wife took a non-droswy Dramamine for the flight and then was pretty much unconscious for the first afternoon and evening. Actually he was so understanding but I sure felt like a pathetic bum. I mean, really! Who get's knocked out on non-droswy Dramamine for 12 hours??


Sadly, the closest thing Jeff got to golfing was taking a picture with me near one of the fairways. He's a sport!

Thanks Jeff, for a wonderful weekend away and for walking with me on this Journey for fourteen years. I feel treasured by you!
