Ziplining!

For Will's birthday last year, he told me he wanted to go ziplining.  We didn't go last year, so this year, I bought a Ziplining Tour down in wine country!  With everything going on (wedding plans taking a turn, my parents moving to Seattle, stress at work for both of us), it was great to leave town for a couple of days, just to two of us. 

Saturday morning, we woke up, threw bags in the car and headed south!  Our tour was scheduled for 12:30, but we arrived early and other people arrived late, so they swapped us out!  We geared up, met our tour guides, had a quick lesson in ziplining and then we were off in the trees! 

We had an awesome day and Will was so excited about his late birthday weekend!



After our adventure in the tree tops, we hit Stonehouse Winery.  We had been there before and went back for a tasting and a delicious glass of wine!  Then we headed to Horseshoe Bay for our night at the Marriott Resort!  I was quite excited about our reservation because rooms are normally anywhere from $300-$700 a night and I got it on expedia for $130!  The resort was completely booked that weekend and we ended up getting upgraded to a villa that normally runs for over $700/night on the weekends!  Thank you expedia.com!

We had a great dinner over looking the lake!  I even got carded when I ordered my drink!  The waiter told Will, "Sorry dude, she looks really young!" Ha!

The resort was beautiful!  It had several pools, extensive grounds with all kinds of activities ( clay, grass, and cement tennis courts, putting greens, walking paths, bikes to rent, etc).  Like any Marriott resort, it was exquisite!  We very much enjoyed our stay!  Plus, his parents drove up from Austin to have brunch with us Sunday morning!
