OuR LiTTle GeT AwaY!!

Rey and I were able to go on a little 2 night 3 day get away, thanks to my parents who were willing to watch our kiddos. We went to Disneyland and LA. Rey surprised me by reserving us a room at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel, in the heart of Los Angeles. I was SO excited when we pulled up and he told me that that was where we were staying. I was amazed at how huge and beautiful it was on the inside and out. We watched the Super Bowl, there at the hotel in it's lobby/bar area, where they had like 10 huge flat screens on the walls. It was fun to watch it even if it was with people we didnt know...we met some nice people there and enjoyed the game together. Later that night we made an appointment at the hotels spa to have a couples massage done. Oh my gosh, it was so relaxing and neat to have Rey right next to me. We each got a 75 minute massage and it was funny because when they were done, they both had to wake us up and when we stood up we were both so relaxed that we could hardly even walk. We got back to our room around 11:30pm and vegged. We watched Four Christmas' (cute movie) and then fell asleep. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect night. Then we woke up and went to Disneyland. We had a blast, well how can you not have fun at the "Happiest Place on Earth" right? The next day we went to downtown LA to Olvera St. For those of you who have never been there, it is a Mexican Marketplace, where you can shop and eat authentic Mexican food. Rey was so cute....he was so excited to go there because he wanted to use his Spanish and eat some of the food that reminded him of his mission. I loved watching him speak Spanish, I don't know what it is, but it just touches my heart to see him interact with those people. Well we had an amazing time! It was nice to be able to focus just on each other for those couple of days, and not have to worry about kids or work.

Rey at the pool at like 10:30pm. The pool was really warm but it was too cold for me outside to get in.

Watching the Super Bowl

This is what I did while Rey went swimming.

This is just a glimpse of what the hotel was like on the inside.

I loved our windows, as you can see they went from the floor to the ceiling. The view was awesome, especially at night.

These two pictures were our view from our room.
