with him heading up something like 100 upgrades for all of the CSU campuses starting this month and lasting the next six and me working 20-30 hours a week plus our mom and dad duties, we havent had a moment for each other, let alone a night out, in MONTHS.
this summer grabbed us, shoved us around a little, maybe punched us once or twice, then threw us up in the air and stepped back to see how and where we would land.
i am 31, and i have spent almost 16 years with this man. 16 years is as long as i lived before him. we are getting to the point where we can say we have been together longer than we were apart. and i am happy to say that this summer couldn’t beat us. we landed right where we always do-back into the circle of our life, our love, our family.
last week we stole off for a few hours to grab some grub and margaritas at our favorite cantina in san clemene: el mariachi, and then took a blanket to state beach where we cuddled, talked, and dozed with our full bellies.
its precious to me that we can be at each others throats and all we need is a short amount of time, sometimes mere minutes, to find our way back to the place we meet.
the place we fit.
awww… thats awesome.. true love is truely wonderful
Beautiful. Very well said! Incredible tribute to marriage in general.
You two are an inspiration. So adorable. p.s. Love your casual hair look, awesome!!!
damn girl… you’re hot.
I love seeing people in LOVE. My hubby and I are coming up on 16 years together—we both turn 33 this year so we’re coming up on that time ourselves where we can say we’ve been together half our lives. I can’t imagine life without him. We fit together, too. Thanks for sharing. :)
I don’t know what you’ve been doing but it’s really working for you … you glow and are ubber sexy hot in these pictures. My husband and I have been married for 13 years and we are getting some alone time tonight!
i love this post. what you wrote is exactly how i feel about my wife. we can handle anything together. we fit….we’re a team. it’s such a mind blowing thing to have that kind of bond with another person. i don’t get it. sharon knows me better then anyone…and after 10 years…still chooses me. still laughs at my jokes and hugs me when i’m down. she’s the best. we are one.
make time for this kind of thing more….there’s nothing more important then your bond together.
thanks! take care.
you guys are in it for the long haul…i’m convinced :)
this is what LOVE is all about. simply beautiful.
i’m really loving your hair long t!

You are a beautiful person, but I think this is the most beautiful picture I have ever seen of you; you look so happy!!
I thought that restaurant looked familiar! You’re all over my stomping grounds, Tara. Glad you and your man got a night out – El Mariachi and State Beach – quite the perfect date!
