There are not words to describe the kind of vacation we had... romantic + relaxing + exhilarating, don't quite sum it up. The only thing I can say about it is that is was as good (if not better) than the 10 days we spent in Hawaii in 2007. And to say THAT means it was some of the best days of my life. I could write 20 separate posts for these bullet points, so when I have the time, I will. My husband requested that most of them are posted on my private blog. I love him and will do anything he tells me to. For now, these TOP TEN lists of our Tenth Anniversary will have to do:
TOP TEN HIGHLIGHTS OF OUR VACATION:
7. Swimming in the warm ocean at midnight.

5. Jogging along the beach at sunrise.
3. Snorkeling and being just a few feet away from a reef shark. Aaron thinks it was about 7-8 ft long. I think it was HUMONGOUS.
2. Driving in a convertible over the Atlantic Ocean with my handsome husband. Sunsets were always the best.
The DOWNSIDE...
or the TEN WORST moments of the weekend.
10. Spending 4 days there instead of 14.
9. Straightening my hair only to have it curl and frizz ten minutes later.
8. Getting lost on the way to (and from) the Keys.
7. Realizing that everyone who lives in the Florida Keys is a HOBO. Trust me.
6. Not buying a $20 underwater camera before I realized we would run into a shark.
5. Eating a salad at a fancy restaurant, only to find a big dead fly mixed in with the tomatoes and dressing.
4. Getting sand in the camera and breaking the lens.
3. Leaving my new phone in Aaron's swimsuit pocket while snorkeling.
2. Missing the kids. It was painful just thinking about my baby!
1. Booking our flights on SPIRIT AIR. Their pilots were on strike the very days of our vaca. More on this later.

I sure hope you complained about that salad and got it (and hopefully the meal) for free!
I am not a freak about things in my food. Yes, I returned it and our waiter was awesome and made it up to us-- but I don't really care about stuff like that. In fact after the waiter took it away, Aaron asked if I would have eaten it if he dared me. I think I would have for the right reward...
We were laughing because I always talk about being a contestant on Survivor. Would I eat a fly to prove I am tough enough? Totally. It would take a lot to gross me out. When I find hair in my food from a restaurant, I never care. I take it out and shrug my shoulders. The fly is a little different than a hair but if I hadn't seen it, my salad probably would have tasted the same. It's all in the mind.
what an awesome 10th anniversary. You look great, by the way. Love the 2nd pic, of you and Aaron. You guys look so happy and relaxed.
Did you know they make a phone that is indestructable(sp?)? You can soak it in water, drop it from tall heights, its really cool. What service do you use? I can have Matt find you a phone for cheap :)
Jealous, jealous, jealous. This is the only word I can think of right now. Your getaway sounds like it was absolutely amazing! I've really been enjoying all your little posts. Best romance story I've read in a long time.
Your father-in-law was thrilled to see Shell World again, vicariously, of course! Thanks!
So how is Florida?!?! I'm dying to know more details since we're moving there soon. Not to Miami, thankfully. We'll just visit there. :) Glad you had a great 10 yr anniversary!
