holy palatial penthouse suites, batman!
Lucky us. Every time we step into the elevator and hit the PH button, whoever is in the elevator with us says something like, "Oooohhh! Penthouse, eh? How'd you score that?" And our answer is, "Wouldn't you give a ridiculously good-looking couple like us an upgrade to the penthouse?" Haha! Kidding.
Undoubtedly, staying in the penthouse - ahem, for FREE - is awesome in and of itself. But on top of that, we got to partake of the fabulously warm and gooey chocolate chip cookies for which Doubletree Hotels are known. YUMMMM!
How large is the penthouse? Well.
For one, Steve keeps meaning to call the front desk to ask for a smaller room because he can't find me in the suite from time to time.
Two, We have two full bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, and three beds total. (We'll have to get creative.)
And three, the suite comes with a doorbell and a sweet plasma widescreen. 'Nuff said.
Did I mention the pool? And sunny skies? And free water bottles? And room service? Um, yeah. Sigh.

Awesome!!
And I must say, Glenn, the "Penny in a Jar" thing had me laughing out loud.

Nickels, Pennies. The y go in one at a time, and they come out one at a time. :D

For the first year of marriage, every time the husband and wife "know" each other, they place one penny into a jar.
After the first year of marriage, they take a penny *out* of the jar each time they "know" each other. Then they see how many years it takes to empty the jar.

I love it that the suite is so big Steve can't find you half the time. This would definitely be a good place to play hide and go seek.

Dang, this is the best incentive I've ever seen to get married. ;-) Wow.

There has never been a more appropriate time for the phrase I've borrowed from you:
"Um, yeah."
