Happy Thursday! Fall has officially started which I am very excited about! One other thing I am excited about is that tomorrow is my wedding anniversary. My wonderful husband and I will be celebrating our 11th anniversary!
I would like to be able to say that it has been completely wonderful and a piece of cake, but I think any of you who are married would know that it would be a complete lie. Marriage is not easy. Marriage is hard work. There are times where you don't feel like putting in the work. Times when things are so bad that you wonder if it would just be better to walk away.
I'm here to tell you that those bad times, the times that make you wonder, are the times that make the good ones even sweeter. Working through the bad times and surviving is worth it in the end.
What has helped me and my husband is the fact that we truly love and respect each other. Girls, I have to tell you I got a good one when I married this fella! He treats me with respect, he loves me unconditionally, and he thinks I am the most beautiful woman on this earth! And the best part is that I feel the same way about him.
So tomorrow, we are finally getting away and spending some time with each other. If we are lucky, a couple of times a year we are able to get away for a day and a night. Well for this anniversary, we are going to be gone a whole weekend! We are also going to be doing something that I love to do that we haven't done in a long time! We are going antiquing! I already have some items on my list that I want to buy to restore for our home. Hopefully I can find what I am wanting. If I do I plan to share my projects with you!
The other exciting thing that is happening today is that we are getting new internet service. As you would expect (from the title of my blog) we live in a very rural area and so our options are limited (one), until now. We now have another option so we are going to go with that one and see how it works. I am hopeful that our service will be better and more consistent.
So have a great weekend and next week I promise another recipe and the start of the Christmas series. See you then!
