Mystery Weekend Getaway!

Have you ever been given a gift that you felt like you didn't deserve? Like a really great gift that you could never repay? That is what happened to us last weekend when our wonderful friends the Behnkes gave us an awesomely-perfect-completely-planned-and-paid-for vacation!

Our weekend started with only knowing we were going to WI Dells and these mystery envelopes and packages.
 
If you could describe paradise in Wisconsin in winter, this is it.
Cheap happy hour margaritas overlooking the river = nice way to kick off the weekend.
View out our condo deck. Watching the sunsets might have been my very favorite part.
Surprises are so stinkin fun!
They thought of EVERYTHING!
Winery tour was amazing, I felt so classy. Until we got home and opened our usual $2.89 bottle of Aldi wine.
Dr. Evermore's Park: possibly the weirdest/most creative sculptures ever.
Which beer is best? (please tell me that someone got my Dwight/Jim joke there?!?)
We had such a hard time deciding which activity to do Saturday night: Casino, Old Time Portraits or Wett Nightclub. Obviously, we went with Wett and danced the night away. Oh Paul and Nicki, you guys are way too hilarious.
We almost went swimming outside our condo.
Knocking over pine trees, no big whoop.
Hiking!!!! Classic Dean and Betsy time.
This is how excited I was about this vacation!
Dean was also quite thrilled.
We had a weekend that we will never forget and we cannot thank our friends enough! Just wait until we send you on your African safari vacation...
