Blessed With Thirty-Five Years



Earlier this week Ron and I stepped away from the day-to-day, away from the job, away from cooking and cleaning, away from blogging, away from the clock. We stepped away to unhurried time together and a pause for reflection on the thirty-five years we have shared. 

We stayed at a B&B in a quaint little town. We took meandering walks and oohed and aahed over the charming buildings and maritime scenes. We lingered over a scrumptious seafood meal on a dock, mere inches from the water, as ducks swam and waited for crumbs. We poked our heads in a few shops, shared a vanilla-maple-bacon cupcake, and wondered out in search of our evening coffee. 





















And we thanked God for the blessing of years together and for all of His good gifts.

  6. Unhurried time two of the sweetest words. So glad that you two were able to leave the busyness behind and have this time together to honor the day and the years and the family and the love and all that God has done in your lives.

    Now enough with the sappy stuff...I want to reach right out and snag that ripe, delicious tomato. Oh yummy looking.

    Ron looks a little anxious about his order. Hope that he got it right. ☺

    Here's to another thirty-five!

  7. Happy anniversary. (That's almost exactly how we like to celebrate ours. I'm not so sure about that particular muffin variety, however....) It looks like a charming village that you visited!

  9. What a fabulous celebration! Happy 35th anniversary! Thank you for the tour of that quaint little town. Such fun to explore and take your sweet time! I adore the garden with the white fence and arbor. And look at that vintage blue door! I think I would have been snapping photos like crazy too.

  13. Well, Happy Anniversary! We celebrated our 38th a couple of weeks ago. The B&B looks wonderful and the surrounding area so quaint and lovely! Never had a fish taco and would probably have to try one to convince myself they are good...lol!
