ARRRRRR Pirates

I listened to DAB on EarPods.  Rose and i worked on puzzles, and cat in the cradle.  We ate an early deli lunch and went to Pirtates Landing.  Fun afternoon.  We shopped a little and went back.  Around 7 we walked down for pizza.

Beach

 I got up and went down for the sunrise.  I headed to Brownsville to see jean and get a few things from 407.  After I came back, soon the kids were swimming in the pool  we  ate burgers that Luke grilled, chilled and then went to the beach. We spent most of the afternoon at the beach.  At night we walked to Louis back yard for the sunset.  It was pretty.  The kids rode on the carnival rides before heading back.    Great meal, fun day.

On the island

I woke up and went down to the beach to watch the sunrise.  At 9 we went to Chapel by the sea.  The front row was a great place for us to be.  the boys played on the floor relatively quietly.  the church was packed.  Thank you God for such a sweet service.  We went back to the airbnb and then all of us went to the market at Port Isabel.  We ate at Pirates Landing.  Home for naps/resting. Then to the beach.  Dumb me.  When Luke brought a hot sauce bottle down to the beach.  I left it out on the table where he set it.  What a bummer ending to a great day at the beach.  We came home to the hotter, supper, explosion kitty game and updating my blog.

Luke and karen artive!!!

I was up and working on getting food ready for the arrival of family.  Denny and I headed to Charro Days parade about 110{15.  $20 to park  $10 for 2 folding chairs.  Denny could take the heat of the sun.  me, not so much. It was too hot for me.  In fact 2 times I really left woozy when I stood up.  Uffda!!  The traffic was awful as we headed back to 4 seasons.  Luke's crew came soon after we got there.  They didn't eat very much at all.  They did take to RC boats to the lower rasaca. I wasn't feeling the best and so Denny cleaned up the kitchen while I went back to the bedroom. About 8 we went to SPI.  Wonderful place that Peter has gotten on the island. 




Every marriage starts with the words, "I do", but all lasting marriages are filled with countless, daily "I dos". To choose to truly love, we must choose "I do" in the day-to-day interactions of life.

I do...make you a priority.     I do...speak to you kindly.     I do...practice integrity when you're not around.     I do...honor you.     I do...make time for you.     I do...stop and listen to you.     I do...forgive.     I do...choose to never give up.     I do...choose put my phone down and have a real conversation with you.

This list could go on forever. Healthy marriage is filled with a lifetime of love as demonstrated through actions.     Feelings of love are great, and words expressing love are romantic. But make sure your feelings and words of love are always supported by actions of love.     Choose "I do" fiercely,
