Blessings

So as you can see, I've gone green. I'm not a big fan of St. Patrick's day. Just the saying, "luck of the Irish" rubs me wrong. I don't like the word "luck" because I like to think the good things that happen are blessings given to us and are not happening by chance. So we'll see how long the green last.

Speaking of blessings, I trully am blessed to be married to Mark. He has always made me feel so special. We went on a Valentine's date yesterday and it was wonderful. Mark thought of me and bought tickets to the AVP winter tour. For those who don't know, it is pro beach volleyball. This is the first year they have done a winter's tour where they bring the sand indoors. I'm sure Mark enjoyed it too but really it was for me. Just another way Mark makes me feel like I'm number one on his list. My favorite players were not there. I'm sure they are getting ready for the summer olympics (though Kerri Walsh was there commentating). There were some good players playing and I thoroughly enjoyed watching them in person. Everything just looked stronger and faster than watching it on TV. It was fun to watch and it took everything I had not to run down onto the sand to play too!

We also went to eat at Gustav's. They have the most amazing German food! It was nice to go somewhere new. It was a really fun date.

Thank you Mark for making this Valentine's day memorable. I love you!
