Pat and I recently celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary. The past year has been full of ups and downs and the quite certainly the busiest and most stressful year of our lives. While we couldn't afford a big get away to celebrate we opted out for a smaller get away.
Saturday afternoon we dropped Brutus off at aVIP (a "cage free" boarding kennel). Then we headed down to Clearwater Beach to check into our hotel. Our room overlooked part of the Gulf...it was beautiful.
We headed down for dinner at Jimmy's Fish House which was right on the water too.
After dinner we walked to the to the Tropics Party Boat for a sunset cruise. Because of the weather forecast a lot of couples apparently had canceled but it ended up working out for us because it was a nice, fairly quiet, boat ride.
We headed back to the hotel and relaxed the rest of the night. The next morning we walked to breakfast and stopped at the beach for a moment. We decided we missed our pooch and checked out to go pick him up. Once we got home, Brutus was happy to wear his dad's lei from the sunset cruise.
Finally, Sunday night after dinner we dug into the top layer of our wedding cake. Pat was less than thrilled but he manned up and tried some of the cake. It wasn't half as bad as either of us thought! But...we still threw it out.
Happy 1st Anniversary to Us!
