Feeling very Blessed!
Feeling very Refreshed!
Feeling very Appreciative as we return from our get-away!
We decided we wanted to, no scrap that, NEEDED to get away - just the two of us. Life is always so busy and we have spent such little time (since kids) as just the two of us. It is important to invest time into our relationship and we agreed that 10 years of marriage deserves celebrating. So we planned a get away. 5 glorious days at the beach. Just us. We chose a resort in Marco Island, Florida. It had everything we wanted and it fit the budget!
It was absolutely beautiful.
It felt like a second honeymoon. White sand, crystal clear water, evening sunsets over the gulf, resort style pools and restaurants and tiki huts at every turn. We felt spoiled. In fact, we both felt a little guilty by all the free time we both had -- a foreign concept.
But we got quickly used to it. Settled right into our old selfish ways! We woke up and had coffee every morning off our hotel balcony as we read the paper...
Then we would head off the the beach for a walk....
And then we would grab brunch and a good book and hit the beach for some rest and relaxation.
And the evenings were glorious!!! We felt completely spoiled by the evening sunsets over the gulf. They were magnificent!
And the pools were amazing as they overlooked the blue/green ocean and Palm trees were everywhere around it...
We had such an amazing time re-connecting as husband and wife!
We can't thank our moms enough for taking care of the home front and taking excellent care of our children while we were gone! I feel so overwhelmed with gratitude!
