Great Glendale adventure...

Mike and I did a mini escape this weekend. We took off after work on Friday and went to Cabelas!!

 We did a lot of shopping and lots of looking. We even ate dinner there!
 I like the aquatium there.... here is some kind of lovely sucker fish!
 A HUGE catfish... that would make a catfish dinner for the whole family!!!
 And of course Cabelas is filled with dead animals everywhere!!
 After spending the evening at Cabelas we stayed at a great little place, the Executive Inn.
 Then Saturday morning it was off to the Glendale Chocolate festival. I have always wanted to go. It wasn't just chocolate stuff... it was more like an arts and craft thing and fair food and chocolate all in one.
 We did lots of looking at antique stores and eating food and then had chocolate for the grand finale! YUM!
See this thing in the bottom of the picture... it is a GIANT carmel apple completely covered in nuts and chocolate chips! WAY YUM!! So when we left Glendale we stopped at Pruitts in Phoenix. It is a HUGE furniture store and we spent a couple hours there just LOOKING!! We definitely have a wish list now! We didn't have to go far to have a great fun weekend! Thanks Mike... you're the best!!

Cabela's is so fun, isn't it? We can go for a rainy day activity and spend a few hours just looking! (And usually eating, of course.)
Your little weekend getaway sounds great.

About Me

My photo
Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
