I am so thankful for you, Farah. Happy Thanksgiving.

After becoming such homebodies this past year, we’ve decided to try something new on Saturdays. The 1st & 3rd Saturday of the month will be Farah’s and the 2nd and 4th will be mine to plan a day that will involve one activity and a meal. Exploring new areas and creating memories together is our goal! It’ll be fun to discover new things as well as have a surprise for each other every other week! When it comes to nurturing relationship, we know that growth only comes by effort, so we have decided to plan special surprise dates for each other. The fact is that we both work at home and we can use a little extra injection of excitement and to simplify even further, we just need to get the heck out of the house!! This is not to say that we need to do something extraordinary to have a healthy marriage, but we definitely need to be more intentional about how we spend time together. So it’s time to get out and enjoy life!! This Saturday is mine! Wish us luck!!

900 miles is plenty to drive in three days but it is well worth the distance when it involves seeing family. Here is a collection of snapshots from our quick trip to Northern California.
