Happiest of anniversaries to you both! So thankful for your happiness. The slideshow made me cry. Very beautiful and I hope that when my husband and I hit 20 years, we'll be as happy as you two. xo

Twenty Years Twenty years. It feels like a lifetime ago. Twenty years ago on August 8th, 1992, Eric and I entered into a pretty serious contract. Seriously. Any ceremony that specifically mentions "sickness," "poverty," and "death" as potential outcomes and non-deal-breakers cannot be entered into lightly. Before entering into this covenant, we agreed (out loud) that divorce was not an option. And so we entered in, with eyes wide open and agreed that we would hang in there through pretty much any eventuality. And we've managed to keep our commitment for the past twenty years. Love, we have both learned is a choice. We have been making that daily choice to love through all the great stuff and all the difficulties and it has paid off. Ours is a marriage we're both proud of. Today we celebrate the twentieth wedding anniversary of the day we entered into our bindingly scary contract. August...

I'm. On. Vacation. (via Instagram) Every year, just like my parents used to in Cuba B.C.* (*before Castro), we enjoy spending a beautifully relaxing time at the beach. In this case, we're in Del Mar, California and the weather is perfect. If you follow me on Instagram, you would already have this information, but that's not important right now. Here's the documentation of the beginning of our vacation week (with captions), via Instagram. This is where you'll find me all week. Right now. They're both good at boogieing, but she excels at frolicking. My husband participates in vacation sports. I'm. On. Vacation. As you can see, we're working really hard at this whole vacation/relaxation thing. I think I've done really well with the documentation part of it, too. If you want to enjoy some more of my personal vacation "relajo," please feel free to follow along on Instagram. I'm Smrtqbn. Coming to you live from...
