This Saturday my beloved and I will celebrate our 28th anniversary. WoHOO! In this day of disposable commitment I consider that quite an achievement, especially since we are not just hanging out together, we still really HONOR this union we've built. Because our anniversary comes within just a few days of my husband's birthday we've often used that week as the time for some great vacations to commemorate both. We've done some amazing things... everything from a trip to Haceta Head Lighthouse bed & breakfast on the Oregon Coast (for #19) to a 10 day trip of a lifetime to Egypt on #25.
This year dollars dictate that we keep things fairly simple. But I would still like to make it as special as we can.
We've had our ups and we've had our downs. But through thick and thin, I truly love this man I'm married to and am deeply grateful for the safe haven of our marriage.
Any suggestions for how to spend a romantic weekend on a tight budget??
Happy, Happy Anniversary! Many Years!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! How about a pie fight? :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats! We are working on year 9, and I look up to those who have paved the way for my belief in happy, long-lasting marriages. As far as a get-a-way, I am a bit adventurous and say to find the cheapest plane ticket to anywhere you have never been and book a hotel room there. I have found that even in cities I have no desire to visit, there are hidden gems to be found. I am curious as to what you decided to do!
ReplyDeleteActually the day of our anniversary turned out to be a bit of a bust. It was cold and rainy so the plans we had for a lovely drive, picnic and hike never materialized. RATS! But we managed ok just being home and loving each other.
ReplyDeleteHow nice to hear of the committment that works! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteA late congrats! What did you end up doing?
