Christopher and I celebrated our tenth wedding anniversary last week. Chris's parents graciously offered to watch our children so that we could enjoy some time alone together. We booked a room at the Inn on Ferry Street in Detroit. The bed and breakfast consists of a number of historic properties just west of downtown (MidTown if you want to get technical). It was a gem. The breakfasts were amazing and the buildings themselves were gorgeous. We were within walking distance to a number of museums, including the Detroit Institute of Arts (future post).
I booked the standard queen room. We were bumped up to some sort of palatial king suite for some reason or another.
The bathroom was cavernous, like fourteen times the size of our bathroom at home.
I read somewhere in the Inn's promotional materials, that during the renovation of the buildings the owners used salvaged materials wherever possible. I really enjoyed the little details of the room we stayed in. Just look at those tiles!
Crown molding. Swoon.

Congratulations, we're one year behind. We celebrated 9 years on Dec. 29. We took the boys to Mongolian Grill to celebrate. We also won a gift certificate to a local restaurant. We'll probably take the boys to that too! We'll have to do go out without the boys next year for #10.
Wow! That's all I have to say.
Happy Anniversary!
What a beautiful place to stay and enjoy celebrating God's Good Gift of 10 years of Marriage!
Congrats Erin and Chris! I'm so happy for the two of you. By the way, your Christmas card was so fab. You two look great and your children are the cutest.

What a beautiful place and a fun getaway. Congrats. You two look great.
Happy anniversary!
We are planning a similar getaway for our 24th in a few months. Probably not a B&B but instead the fireplace/whirlpool suite at the local Americinn (we've been there before) . . . ;-)
Gorgeous place! Glad you guys had a nice time, and congratulations on ten years!
