This story starts quite a while back... back to the summer of 2009 when Michael and I first moved to Colorado. That summer we packed up all of our belongings and hauled them to Breckenridge where we promptly unpacked them ourselves.
Fast forward to two nights ago in February of 2011. I had stripped the bed during the day and washed the sheets, but had yet to put them back on at 10 p.m. After having guests for a few weeks, we were really tired so we opted to sleep on the guest bed, which had nice clean sheets on it thanks to Michael's sister, Suzanne.
The next morning we arose rested, refreshed and (practically) hearing little birdies chirp outside the window. We both remarked how astonished we were to have slept so well in our guest bed, especially in light of the fact that we'd both recently noticed a decline in our slumber on our mattress.
After much discussion and wrinkling of eyebrows, we decided to switch out the mattresses. We'd rather sleep on the other, more comfortable mattress, even if it was meant for guests.
And that's when it hit us!!
As we stripped the guest bed, including it's mattress pad, we realized that it was in fact the original mattress which we'd purchased when we lived in Texas!!!!
WHAT?!?!?
How could this colossal mix up have occurred? Not that we desire to give our guests a poor sleeping experience, but most people save their awesome mattress for the bed they sleep in every night, right?
All we can figure is that when we first moved in, we were a little frazzled and must have put the wrong mattress in each room. As you can see below there's quite a difference between the two, but apparently we missed it...

Thankfully our mattress has been returned to its rightful place and will be waiting for us this evening!! YAY!!
