Happy 1st Anniversary to Us!

Last week my husband and I hit the road for our first anniversary trip and head straight for the beach. Now, it is still on the chilly side in New Jersey but the thought of getting away to anywhere was delightful.  We needed to break the monotony of every day and celebrate our one year anniversary.

We stayed in the adorable Evergreen Bed and Breakfast in Spring Lake. We were the only guests and had the entire place to ourselves.

Brian and I aren't the real "romance" type people. I have to admit I laugh at anything that has to do with  romance. When Brian proposed I laughed at him for a few minutes before I even said yes.

We indulged in an amazing and very fattening breakfast. 

Pumpkin pancakes and crab cakes eggs benedict. I'm still having dreams about how delicious they were. 

Our Anniversary dinner included watching the rain fall while eating lobsters and enjoying a summer shandy. It briefly felt like summer. 

It was a wonderful time. We hope to do it again very soon!

Happies and Crappies...

HAPPIES 

- Our 1st wedding anniversary is coming up. I'm pretty excited. Trying to find fun things to do because Brian and I have taken 2 extra days off next week. Can't believe a year has gone so fast. 

- I'm trying to talk my husband into staying at this Bed and Breakfast for our anniversary. It's adorable plus they have an Inn dog named Quincy! I wonder if they'd let me have him for the night?

- I'm semi on the mend. This bronchitis has knocked me out. I'm back at work just in time for the weekend. I intend on sleeping the majority of the time. This medicine is making me feel even worse. Yuck! 

- I only missed 1 bootcamp class. Trust me I felt terrible getting through them being sick but it really is amazing what our body can do, even when we think we can't. Only 4 more classes! Hoping for some more results this month! I'm proud that I've avoided wine all month! I vowed to not by any alcohol and keep any in our home the last 2 months! Accomplished:)

CRAPPIES

- For me it feels some what frivolous for me to complain about the problems in my life this week. Compared to so much suffering in Boston and Texas my complaints are nothing. Yes, my job is tough, I'm under tremendous stress, we didn't get them news I was expecting, we may not have children but my loved ones are safe and I'm able to wrap my arms around them. I really can't complain about anything this week. 

What are you happy for this week?
