A mix of photography, recipes, personal thoughts, faith, and lots of family stuff, but not necessarily in that order.

Anniversary Roadtrip and more...

Rick and I had a little "Anniversary get-away" last week to one of our favorite destinations,
"Breezy Point cabins on Lake Superior" near Two Harbors MN
(The view out our cabin door)
We were hoping to be where winter still resided, and we found the jackpot as Northern Minnesota still had plenty of snow, the temperatures were mild, so it was perfect for some outdoor activities.

We were excited to try our new snow shoes
When hiked in a forest where we were the only humans around, 
it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop in the snow.
"Demonstration Forest"
Plenty of snow to trudge through....
 I found out the day after that snowshoeing gives you a good abdominal workout :)

We had a good mix of activity and rest...
Our mornings we just like this
Getting a little Vitamin D
We spent 3 night at our cozy cottage, it was a perfect winter/Anniversary getaway

Yesterday was our official Anniversary...

We decided to hit-up one of our favorite small towns
Red Wing, MN
Red Wing is a beautiful River city,
 We went on a walk along he river, spoting lots of guys in their boats, 
 some were even fishing along the shore.
This is an photo that I just love of Rick and I! 
It's a good depiction of who we are when we are together (and alone) 

41 years ago we said "I Do"  
Our marriage isnt perfect, but it's perfect enough for us...
 It's our story and we're sticking with it.

God is in our story, he has taken good care of us and our sweet family.
We have depended on him through good and bad... happy and sad.
We are grateful he saw us fit to be together and we plan on "forever".
We are happy as clams and loving life!

  1. I always look forward to your anniversary post. It just makes me happy to see how much in love you and Rick are still, always, forever. What a fun day trip to Red Wing. And I understand why you like the North Shore in winter. Oh, the quiet, the solitude, the beauty. Happy belated anniversary, dear friend!
