There was a big storm in the middle, but it was fine -David and I took a long nap in the car! We had already set up the tent, so we were set for the night. The National Park campground was surprisingly beautiful, with walk-in sites, and we were almost the only ones in the campground (sleeping on Monday eve.). Until Monday morning it was busy, of course! (Memorial Day)

We loved the hikes, the dunes and the beach – it was empty on my birthday. I did yoga, meditation and swam in the morning, alone – David dropped me off there. I could thank all my blessings, and think of my future in peace: by the water and sun rays.

Have I told you that I love life? I’m happily 36. And I’m glad you are part of my life.

Pri birthday 2010

4 brains, 8 hands and a lot of energy, courage and love to make this happen! We really enjoyed building something ourselves, and not paying somebody to do it.

This feeling of accomplishment is really great.

Without Donna and George here, it would have been much harder. They were essential, in all senses. How lucky David and I are having them help and be so enthusiastic about the whole process!!! Thanks again!!!

Check out the pictures during the construction!

Second Wedding Anniversary

Saturday arrived!  We started the day with an awesome breakfast and then went to our park. Our tradition is to go back to the Karst Farm Park on our anniversary, and repeat our ceremony – reading our vows, drinking the wine and water. (Follow the pictures for the park adventure)

We bought somethings for our house, and then went to Roots for dinner (yummy portobello linguine and polenta), then coming back home we talked with our families (or tried to) and David tuned the spinet with Pythagorean temperament. (it was very out of tune) We felt really happy with how beautifully it sounded afterward. It was pretty quick, btw.

David made popcorn (hummm), and we decided to watch Julie & Julia. But first we watched this video of Julia making omelets, since Priscilla hadn’t heard about Julia Child.

A very entertaining movie. Actually it was so striking that Pri bought Julia Child’s book “Mastering the Art of French Cooking”, which will arrive this Friday. She was SUCH A CHARACTER!!! “How about dinner in 30 seconds?”

This morning Pri decided to make French omelets à la Child. You can check the photos for this part as well.

So, delicious, fun and successful celebration!

“Thanksgiving Day is a harvest festival celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada. Traditionally, it is a time to give thanks to God for the harvest and express gratitude to others for our many blessings. While historically religious in origin, Thanksgiving is now primarily identified as a secular holiday.” Wikipedia
