Well, I was going to write this post this past week, but a car accident forced me to post pone this particular post. Last Sunday, February 5, my wonderful and crazily devoted husband and I celebrated our anniversary. Yay!
For our honeymoon two years ago we took a Disney Cruise to the Bahamas. It was the best trip ever. Not just because we were newly weds, but because of all the wonderful things there are to do aboard a Disney Cruise. We enjoyed fine dining, an open ice cream bar, endless buffets for breakfast and lunch, deck parties, fireworks, and spectacular Broadway shows. That was just aboard the ship. Isaac and I also had the opportunity to explore Nassau, swim with dolphins, and relax on Disney's Private Island's adults only beach. Talk about peace and quiet. We grabbed a couple of hammocks and just enjoyed the bright sunny day with the waves crashing and enjoyed the wowness that God created. It was a great way to start our life. You can see pics on my FB page.
For our one year anniversary celebration, we went back to DCL and enjoyed their newest ship. All the same great fun and much more! We spent most of our time exploring all the new technology aboard the new ship. no dolphins this time, but we did take a semi-submarine tour of the different reefs and saw beautiful coral along with gorgeous fish and sharks. Again we stopped at the private island and found our way back to Serenity Bay. It was just as magical.
This year we could not keep the cruise trip going as I lost my job for about 3 months last year. However, my mother gave us some Disney tickets for Christmas and we decided to use them for our anniversary. We stayed at their Caribbean resort just for the nostalgia. February was apparently the best time to go. There were so few people there that we were able to visit all of Hollywood Studios, all of Epcot, and catch a few rides and fireworks over at Magic Kingdom. We had a blast. To finish the night off right, we played some Disney Fantasia Mini Golf. It was great.
I think the best part of our trip was the night before, which was our actual anniversary. Isaac took me to one of my all time favorite places to eat...NASCAR Sports Grille! It's at Universal Citywalk. If you have never been, you must go. They have real trophies all around the place. Two actual Nascar Sprint Cup Series cars parked out front and if you go up to the second floor for dining, there are 2 older model cup cars suspended from the ceiling. During an actual race they will turn the cars on at certain times and you can feel the engine roar deep in your bones and watch the tires spin above your head. Even if you aren't a big Nascar fan, you would still enjoy the experience.
Over the past two years we have for sure had our trials and tribulations. There have been plenty of days we are reminded of the "in sickness and health" vows. And many of the poorer days...we are still waiting on the richer :) . Through it all, we have grown closer each day. Every day I fall more in love with him and become more proud of his accomplishments and goals that he attains. We knew life wouldn't be easy for us, but we have more than made it work. It's still just the two of us and our two pups for now and life isn't too bad given the circumstances. Oh, and that little vow he made about letting me attend at least one Nascar race a year...he's kept it!
It's been a great life so far and I only look forward to it getting better. :D
