Lucky 13!

It's 9.27.10! Our Anniversary! A celebration of a marriage, filled with laughter, some tears, lots of affection, lots of laundry! It has been hard work, but like most things, the hard work has paid off with strong feelings of connection, accomplishment, and adoration.

The traditional gift for the 13th anniversary is lace. I guess I should have got some new lace lingerie. But we agreed to no gifts outside of our night away complete with a yummy dinner! We went to the Anniversary Inn, and stayed in the Romeo and Juliett room. It was our first time in this room, but I loved it. I found it tasteful and not cheesy! I loved the design of having the bed upstairs (in the balcony) with a downstairs sitting area and bathtub/waterfall shower. I am an early riser. Even on vacation, my body still wakes me up early. Thus, I could go downstairs, soak in the tub, read, even watch tv from the tub if I wanted, and not disturb the Chief, who I wanted to give the luxury of sleeping in. I did spend an hour downstairs from 6 to 7 a.m. and then decided to return to bed, and miracle of miracles, I slept again til 9 a.m. That is the latest I've slept in in forever!

Our nephew, Quin, came and stayed with the boys and the dogs. The boys thought it was a treat for them as he is a ton of fun! It really was a fantastic way to spend the weekend, with the love of my life! Today, for the "real" anniversary...it is business as usual...and that's okay...it's what our life is about...having a fun family home evening, and being together with these three great boys!

Love you honey, with my whole heart, fur immer und evigkeit!
