My husband and I had the joy of spending Memorial Day weekend together on base, near the beach. It was our first time together alone. It was fantastic and at times challenging. We had a special date night planned for Saturday to celebrate his return and my birthday. Unfortunately our plans kind of fell apart at the last minute, we were running very late with errands, both tired and grumpy. We decided to have a do-over later in the weekend and it was beyond perfect.
We had an amazing evening eating dinner on a balcony overlooking the bay and city skyline as the large, almost full moon rose over the skyscrapers. It was romantic and sweet and the food was amazing. It was the kind of food that stops you in your tracks with every bite. We were amazed and enjoyed delicious mouthful. For dessert the restaurant presented the birthday girl with a beautiful little three-layer red velvet cake. It was incredible.
We left the restaurant and took a walk along the water. It was such a lovely night. It was so good to be so peaceful, easy together and relaxed. Our life is so busy that this doesn't happen nearly enough. But every time we make the time, we remember again what brought us together in the first place and how much we enjoy being together. Three cheers for date night and for special homecoming celebrations!
