Today is our 47th anniversary. So hard to believe---it's gone by pretty fast! But there's no one I'd rather spend time with than my husband, and after all these years we're still very compatible---though, different, for sure! The pandemic has really emphasized how important compatibility is; we're spending WAY. MORE. TIME. TOGETHER! And, fortunately, enjoying it tremendously.
We didn't expect to do anything special today, but a new restaurant with an outdoor patio opened up just a few weeks ago on Canandaigua Lake. Two sets of friends have already been there for dinner, and said it was wonderful, and every safety precaution has been observed.
It is, for sure, a beautiful setting, and it was a gorgeous warm evening. The food was good, and our waitress was charming. There were, however, some details about the occasion which were less than ideal so it's unlikely we'll make the drive to eat there again any time soon. Nonetheless, neither of us regretted the trip tonight, and it definitely was a setting for a celebration. Here's an unobstructed view of Canandaigua Lake.
And our version of a selfie:
During one of the OCC Spring Card Camps, one of the techniques was Faux Dip Dye. I originally created this card for that class, and decided right then it would make a great anniversary card, given the sentiments. We're not regular bike-riders, but we do enjoy it. When I pulled the card out a few weeks ago, I realized the stamping of the bike was not as accurate as it should have been, so this is a recreated version of the first card. I'm not as happy with the faux dipping, but the bike is much improved.
The bike and the sentiment (I love the font!) are both from an older Papertrey Ink set, "Pedal Pusher." Here's the inside sentiment, which was the deciding factor in making this our anniversary card:
Here's hoping the next anniversary isn't celebrated with masks on!
