Reconnecting
Our weekend away in Jasper was wonderful.
Truly about reconnecting and just simply, being.
I loved the simplicity, the relaxation, the "lack of planning". No TV, computers or irritating cell phones interrupting us. Back to the basics...those sweet basics, that so often get pushed aside or hidden away from the everyday world. Welcome back.
Just enjoying the time on a whim, going here going there...no real schedule.
It was awesome.
And the weather...well that was the cherry atop my wonderful birthday gift...and cake!
Taking a moment to celebrate our arrival at the beautiful Alpine Village.
One of the most enjoyable times that Matt and I shared together was our hike up Maligne Canyon on Saturday. What a gorgeous day, and fun time we had! We shared some great conversation, laughs and thanks for your encouragement babe, as I huffed and puffed my way to the top! It was worth every step to the top, even if you did laugh at me!
Matt and I taking a moment to enjoy the day, and the flowing river beside us. It was such a beautiful spot.
Thanks babe for the most wonderful birthday gift ever.
Just the gift of time spent together, just you and me, really ANYWHERE, would have been amazing. Sometimes in the busy-ness of life it seems like we can lose track and take for granted the time that we are with one another. However, reconnecting with you this weekend was truly the greatest gift. Thank you for wisking me away to Jasper for the weekend and making me feel like a queen the whole time. I looked forward and appreciated each and every minute of it.
Thank you. I absolutely cherish all of the memories we create in our life...this life...together.
