MY SURPRISE BIRTHDAY TRIP TO LEAVENWORTH!









I know I am posting this a little late...but life is busy.
I wanted to share some pictures of my surprise birthday trip with Eddie. He took me to "Run of the River" Bed and Breakfast in Leavenworth. It was the nicest Bed and Breakfast in which we have ever stayed. It was really cool. I loved the porch swing and the view was beautiful and serene. Just what I needed after finishing up school with the kids . I loved the relaxing atmosphere.
My hubby is the best!!!
