Life afforded me an opportunity I'd never expected last week. I got to go spend a week with my husband and no children in paradise. I headed to the U.S. Virgin Islands last Wednesday to meet up with Ben where he was working. We snorkeled, hiked, and remembered what it was like to just be a couple without kids hanging from us, interrupting or requiring something. It was fabulous. It was a trip where thousands of memories made, and our love glowed and grew and we just got to breathe.

Proof in a picture, that we were really there.
There are lots more stories to share about our trip. Jellyfish, no-see-ums, flights
humidity, sunsets. A fabulous time and I am so overwhelmingly thankful to have had the opportunity.
