My Best Friend

Friday was our 16th anniversary! Originally we had a trip planned, but because our doggie has been so unpredictable these days, we decided it could wait. It's nothing that couldn't be rescheduled,and in the words of my hubby, "it doesn't matter where we are as long as we're hangin' out together!" So true.

We never really plan big shindigs for our anniversary. Heck, we don't do cards or gifts either! The only requirement for our anniversary is that we focus on each other the whole day! I like that better anyway.

So, Friday the kids didn't have school, and we planned to take them to the apple orchard for a yummy donut and fresh cider. After that, they were off to Grammy and Grampy's for the night and the next day!

We drove into town, got a movie and some Chinese takeout, then came home and pigged out in our comfy chairs. The next day we took a spontaneous road trip, stopping here and there to pick up a caramel apple, a couple of cokes, and a snack or two. Simple but fun. We talked about everything it seems we never have time to discuss, like how cool it would be to have a "party barn" in the backyard, or what we would do if we could do whatever we wanted to do.

We both enjoyed our quiet time at home, and maybe next year we'll take that trip we were planning. If not, it won't matter as long as we're "hangin' out together".

Thank you, God, for my wonderful husband and BEST FRIEND in the whole world!!!

Words Matter. Choose them carefully.

A Character that Reveals

  When you love your enemies,  you reveal what kind of God  our God is.  I was thinking today about how stubborn we are as people sometimes....
