*10*

This anniversary marked 10 YEARS for us!

I can't believe how much our lives have changed these past ten years.

Going from your 20s-30s is such a leap.

We went from being a couple of carefree DINKs to parents of three(!) and being completely self-employed... talk about responsibility!

Such grownups- no not really, but hey that's what I love about our relationship. ;)

James and I have so much fun together, and still love to "date" each other.

I swear it keeps us sane! ha!

Our dream was to go back to the Fairmont Mayakoba (where we stayed for our honeymoon) on our tenth year, but with taxes due right around the corner- alas that wasn't in our itinerary this year. 

So instead we just did a little stay-cay at the Ojai Valley Inn.

We had a great time soaking in the sun and lounging by the pool and spa.

Our room was so gorgeous. It had a great view and a HUGE wraparound deck. 

~Loved it all~

oh! and just because we're such "grownups" James surprised me with a pair of diamond earrings.

Love them!

Love HIM!

God sent me a good one.

Happy Anniversary little bear!

Book of Mormon Birthday

For as long as I have known James he has been a South Park fan.

We used to fall asleep to the show every night. yeah, crazy.

When he found out the creators had a Broadway hit called The Book of Mormon, he had his mind set that one day he would see it. 

Well, turns out the show is now at the Pantages Theater in LA, and our best buds Tony & Yvonne were going. James's big bday surprise this year was tickets to the show!

We left Santa Barbara early, met up with our friends for dinner, saw the show and drove back.

It was a whirlwind of a day but so worth it.

How was the show you ask?

HIGHLY OFFENSIVE, but of course in true South Park fashion, hilarious too.

One thing about South Park is, NO ONE IS SAFE!

So just when you get offended, realize they do it to just about everyone.

Its all fair game. ;)

Would I recommend my mom or pastor see it? hmmmm... probably not. ;)

I love you James!

May the bday month continue!

dinner at the Hungry Cat Los Angeles
great mocktails for the pregnant lady ;)
