escape, transform, rejuvenate...we did it all!

what a wonderful time we had at the spa today! we went and signed in and they ushered us into the waiting room. you could smell soothing scents and hear relaxing music. we sat and waited. art was a bit hesitant and wasn't quite sure what to make of it all. our masseuses came and got us and took us to our couple's room. i ended up getting a hot stone massage and art got a basic massage. it was amazing. afterward art was feeling pretty good. i knew he would like it if he just tried it! i think i actually heard him say that he might try it again...so we'll see. we were instructed to come home and relax the rest of the day, so that's what we're doing. it feels good to pamper yourself every now and then. we send our thanks to all of you who voted for our story. without you we wouldn't have had this special opportunity!

couple's massage day!

so today we are going to enjoy a couple's massage. we won this spa day package from a local contest. we had to write our love story and then people voted on who they thought had the best. it was not a well organized contest, but we won! art isn't that big into being pampered so i told him as long as we did the massage, i would be happy. after all, the gift cards are just that....i can use them for any service! so this will be art's first massage. it will be interesting to see how it goes! i'm really looking forward to it especially since i didn't sleep well last night. lotus day spa, here we come!
