two years.

So Nate and I have been married for two years now. And I almost can't believe it. We've made it out alive and both in one piece, which is good. They have been crazy years - full of highs and lows and twists and turns - and I wouldn't trade them for the world. And now we're heading straight into year number three. And I can't wait to see what it has in store for us. :)

I have been wanting to go to Savannah, GA for the LOOOOOONGEST time now. So my wonderful hubby booked a weekend for us right in the middle of downtown to celebrate our anniversary. The trip was perfect. And I have a feeling we'll be going back.

And now for the pictures...

This was the restaurant in our hotel where we had the most delicious dinner!

I was surveying all the options...

BIG. EXPENSIVE. Boats.

Pretty view. :)

Us in front of the pretty view. :)

Us again.

The hubby!

The Marshall House. I loved this hotel. But I don't know if I could ever stay here now that I know it's supposed to be haunted.

Trying to get a picture of the church...

One of the twenty-four squares in Savannah. Beautiful!

I fell in love with the trees.

And I took a lot of pictures of them!

City Hall.

More trees. :)

The city market.

I found a thrift store! And an awesome new purse!

More city market.

:)

Girl Scouts fo' life!

It took me a really long time to get a picture of the Girl Scouts emblem. So Nate napped on the bench.

It was SO hot I almost jumped in too.

Our lovely room with our big, comfy bed.

Goodbyeeeeeee Savannah!

Hello Tybee Island lighthouse!

This house was for sale. And I absolutely love it. So if someone would like to buy it for Nate and me and move it to Charlotte, that would be AMAZING.

<3

I saw this ring at the festival down by the river and fell in love with it and Nate bought it for me and I was SOOOOOO excited. :)

Nate passed out after going to the gym so he could pig out on dinner.

I FINALLY got a picture of the church. With my freaking iPod. 

The view from our hotel room!

The view from the beach on Tybee Island!

So yep. All in all, we had a GREAT trip. And could not think of a better way to have celebrated our second married year together. Now onto number three... :)

travel.

Now that Nate and I are back home from our wonderful weekend in Savannah celebrating two crazy years of marriage (that I wouldn't trade for ANYTHING), I am back to the trust30 project. At some point in the near future, I will also include some everyday life posting as well. But I can't pinpoint exactly when that will be as I have a TON of lesson planning to do before next week. (In case you didn't hear, I GOT A JOB!)

Anyway. On to the writing challenge.

If we live truly, we shall see truly. - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Not everyone wants to travel the world, but most people can identify at least one place in the world they’d like to visit before they die. Where is that place for you, and what will you do to make sure you get there?

I have always wanted to visit Italy. And I always said it was the one place I wanted to go if I couldn't go anywhere else. And believe it or not, I have already been blessed enough to make that trip. If I could get really specific, though, I would love to be able to take Nate back with me just to visit Assisi. It was quite possibly my favorite place in Italy and it would mean so much to me to be able to share that with him. It has so many spiritual connections for me that I would love to be able to make that happen.

But if I had to pick somewhere new, somewhere I haven't been yet? I think I would want to go spend time somewhere working with children in need. The children I help now have so many resources available to them. While there are still so many obstacles for them to overcome they have families who love them, teachers who work hard with them everyday, doctors and support systems. There are so many children out there who are missing most, if not all, of those components to life. So I think that would be it. I think that before I die I want to travel somewhere that I can devote my life to working with children.

And, as usual, I ask...What about you?
