5 YEARS!

The MR and I are celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary this weekend. We rented a boat this morning and are keeping it until tomorrow. We love the "boat" life and have dreams of someday owning one and possibly living aboard.

Of course today has been filled with lots of love, sweet surprises and romance. We sailed for several hours then anchored to have snacks and sun time. Snacks: cheese, crackers, chips, fresh strawberries w/ whipped cream and champagne to toast our 5th. Don't worry, we are documenting every moment...obviously.

After dinner we set sail again to finally pull into our home port. We've been listening to sweet tunes, playing cards, eating/drinking rootbeer floats, telling stories and learning even more about each other. I always learn something new from the MR about his life, and I fall even more in love with him with every story.

A moment came when I thought I was sooo clever and made up a card game where we would flip a card and talk about what ever thoughts spiraled from the suit or number. At first I got a sarcastic answer and eye-roll from the MR but then guess who was sharing allll of his life stories by the 3rd card?? Yep, you know it.

All jokes aside, I am truly thankful for my life, family, marriage, friends and job...especially when I'm out on the water, peacefully reflecting on life and loving every minute of it.

I believe in being who you are deep down inside no matter what anyone thinks of you. I know sometimes it's hard but, rid the negativity in your life. It's all nonsense and not worth your energy. I get so tired of all the judgement and what certain people or groups think is right or wrong. All that matters is that you love, laugh, smile, follow your heart, think for yourself, be active and think of others often.

Until next time...

Yours truly,
CW
