It was a few weeks late but it was our first chance to actually have the weekend to ourselves. The plan was no plan. We decided to let the day unfold and take us where it wanted to. It ended up taking us near my campus-- to explore the area as tourists and less as the worker bee that I usually am.
My other plan was to try to capture the entire day in pictures... I got about half way there.

Ain't love grand! i'm going to have to read that book now you know. The grass you have there (where you are reading) looks like the kind of grass they have in Brisbane. is it really scratchy and unpretty?
ReplyDeleteman what a perfect day! your coffee is just the color i like, and the dogwoods, and the little caribbean looking cottage, cigars, and the rooster, and the beer, and your turquoise nails!!! the whole thing is like a tropical dream with blue skies and your lover. congrats!
ReplyDeleteThe boy and I celebrate the beginning of our relationship, rather than our wedding day, too! I feel it is sort of, kind of, a little bit more important that we met than the fact that we signed a legal document...
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary!
Love love love that passage from My Life in France. I just got another copy (after giving my first to my mother.) Time to reread!
