We went down to the Texan sports bar and had a few drinks until our Reservation at the Steakhouse.  The TV in there was massive!!!

We ordered a bottle of wine. Something we have never done together before. It was special!! The food was pretty good, but very pricey!!

When I called to make the reservations, I told them that it was our Anniversary. They brought this out at the end of dinner. I would say it was FREE.. but I’m sure somehow we paid for it! :)

We then headed over to the Glass Cactus. We got great seats. This was our view.

We just relaxed and enjoyed each others company and waited for the Firework show.

I haven’t seen a Firework show in I don’t know how long, but this was really the best show!!

And that completed our Friday night!!

We woke up pretty early Saturday morning and head to Grapevine Mills Mall. Did some shopping! Left and ate at Cozumel's right outside the mall. It was SO yummy!!! Then went back to the hotel and took a nap!! Turned into like a 3 hour nap!! We needed it apparently!! Then got ready and went down to the margarita bar in the hotel for happy hour!

We left the hotel and went to eat at Saltwater Willy’s! It was good seafood. Came back to the hotel early and called it a night!! I am not used to staying out so late! We were in bed by 8! Phil was happy because he got to watch some football! I did order a dessert to the room!! The Gaylord is running a special through the end of April 2011 and it is buy one night get one night free if it is your Anniversary!! So if any of you want to do that it is a great little get away!!
