We decided to go to Indianapolis for the weekend (June 6-8) to celebrate our 15th Wedding Anniversary. We had a secret agenda....that will come later in the post though, haha! For the first night of our stay we decided to FINALLY try the Sybaris Pool Suites. We have been wanting to do this FOREVER but, it was always too much money to spend.
These are private bungalows with pools (and other ammenities) right in the room with you!
We very much like to create memories than to spend money on actual items. Stuff ends up broken or lost or you don't care about it after awhile. But, memories are forever and are worth more than anything we could ever buy. We figured the money would be well spend to create something special that last forever.

Anyway, we got there and checked in....I took a crap ton of pictures because the little bungalow we stayed in was AMAZING!
The carpet had flowers vacuumed into it! I have never seen that in ALL the hotels I have stayed at. I tried to get a good picture of it but, you really just have to see it in person. Every inch of the carpet was vacuumed into a design.
A toilet and a bidet. I still don't understand how to use it!! LOL!
Th massage chair on the end there was super duper. I must have one. It is called an i-Joy. Best massage chair I have ever sat in.
View from the bed into the pool room.
Hot tub next to the bed.
The pool! It has a waterfall falling from the leaves in the middle but, rain/shower water is so hard to pick up on film.
The pool was awesome. It was the perfect size and Jeremy is convinced that we will have a pool in our bedroom now when we get our dream home!
The shower/steam room. We turned the steam room on while we were unpacking and went to check on it when we were done and DEAR GOD, it was like walking into the pits of hell!! BAhahaha! We couldn't see anything and nearly choked to death! I think we turned it on too high. Anyway, yeah, we turned it off and couldn't use it right then.
I found this surprise in the mini fridge!! Jeremy had arranged for them to be in the room when we got there! I LOVE chocolate covered strawberries!
We also made a quick run to Skyline for supper to bring back to the place. Skyline Chili is what my parents grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio. Therefore, I grew up on it. It has the most unique, yummy flavor ever! I introduced Jeremy to it when we went on a trip out East with my parents before we were married. It has been something we both have loved ever since.
This is what each little bungalow looked like on the outside. Completely private and secluded rooms. Loved it.
After we checked out, we went shopping for a bit to get me a new outfit. I got one and then we went to Red Robin for lunch. We love Red Robin too.......Red Robin, YUM!
After that we headed across town to our appointment at the tattoo place. Yep, we were getting tattoos to commemorate our anniversary!!! I will post pics of that next post. Gotta get them on the computer.
We were at the tattoo place from about 3pm until about 9:30 or 10ish. We didn't want to spend the money on TWO nights at Sybaris so we pricelined a hotel in downtown Indy and got a SUPER nice one!! Score! Only downside was we didn't get a king bed, we got two queens. I seriously don't know how in the world we ever slept in a queen bed with each other much less with kids. Good grief. They are so stinking small.
On the way home, we stopped at Dixie Truck Stop. Now, this may not seem like a big deal to anyone else but, to me, I was lost in nostalgia. As a child we made the trip to Cincinnati A LOT. Both my mother and father grew up there and we still have lots of family there. So, Dixie was where we stopped every single time to pee, eat, play, whatever. It's huge and full of fun stuff for kids to do and see when they are on a road trip. It isn't quite as entertaining as an adult but, I still loved the trip down memory lane!
I will post more about our tattoos and our feelings in the next post.
