Tropical Paradise

Coming home from a 5 day cruise to the Bahamas is really quite shocking to your system. What do you mean I have to cook? Clean? Make my bed? After a week of being waited on hand and foot... alas, we are home again making our own bed and cooking our own food. Goodbye 24 hour ice cream bar, hello salad! Sigh. 

It was a wonderful vacation and I'm thankful for the time to unplug and get away from the real world for a little while. We had a fun, restful time with Holley and my mom. We did lots of people watching, reading, snorkeling, tanning and eating (duh). I wouldn't have wanted to celebrate our 2 year anniversary or Holley's graduation any other way. :) 

Ready to embark!

Father's Day 2013

First (and only) fish I ever caught with my Dad... without any bait ;)
Walking around the Galleria in Houston just 13 days after receiving his bone marrow transplant-
 hence the mask (July 2007)

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
((2 Corinthians 1:3-4))

Wistful Wednesday

The Bahamas countdown is almost over.
Time to set sail for a few days.
We'll celebrate the graduate
and soak up some rays!
June 11 will mark two years of wedded bliss.
I'll be with my hubby in tropical paradise
 work I will not miss!

Adios and vaya con dios, SC
we are leaving our cares behind.
We plan to eat, tan, relax
and regain our peace of mind.
We'll miss my Dad as we cruise this second go 'round.
But I'm thankful I'll be with my 3 favorite people...
BLESSINGS ABOUND!!
