How time flies...

As most of you know I spent the May long weekend in NY with Jason...It was our 5 year anniversary!!! I know...I can't believe it's been 5 years either!!! How time flies when you're having fun...

Had you asked me 5 years ago if we could make it, I would have told you I had doubts...not in Jason, not in myself, but in the distance...I doubt many relationships last an 8 to 9 hour commute, a boarder crossing and 2 completely different cultural backgrounds...If you ask Jason he will tell you he knew from the beginning what he wanted and what we were capable of (he had a lot of faith in his skills), for me it took a few months to really see the friend, man and lover (get your heads outta the gutter) he is, but once I did I knew that he was "the one" and that he was worth all the crap that comes with distance I knew we could make and I would do anything to spend the rest of my life with J...

We spent our 5th anniversary at Olde Mystic Village/Seaport...Jason was in control of what we did and he planned the perfect day for us...We drove to Mystic, Connecticut (which was about 2 hours from Jason's) and spent the afternoon at the Mystic Aquarium, it was totally up my alley...I got to see beluga whales, penguins, sharks and literally every fish under the sea...I also got to pet a small bamboo shark and sting-rays!!! I am such a kid at heart, ask Jason, I had a bigger smile on my face than most children did...We then went for dinner at this amazing seafood restaurant Go Fish, if you are ever in Connecticut I highly suggest checking it out...It was made for Jason and I, sushi and a hot menu, delicious! Lastly we took a little stroll by the seaport, it was gorgeous and so was the town, it was full of beautiful century homes (also right up my alley)...More important than the things we saw and did was the fact that we got to spend the whole day together, I treasure every minute we get to spend together...

The rest of the May long weekend was spent with family and friends...It was exactly the way a long weekend is supposed to be! I have to say a special thanks to Mom and Dad R and Grandpa, for always making me so welcome in their home, I truly lucked out in the in-law department!

I think that's it for this evening as I am still a little car lagged from the trip...
