forewarning: there aren't any pictures in this post.

i'm boycotting. (just for today)

yesterday evening, jennifer came to the shore (alllllll they way across the

chesapeake bay bridge tunnel) to take pictures of my beau and me.

it was absolute perfection.

we ate supper overlooking the water.

we laughed.

we drank beer. 

we caught up.

then we hung out and jennifer did her thang.

(which she is awesome at)

we laughed (so much).

we danced (not very well). 

we skipped (well... tried to)

we waved to passers by (will's dad - on a scooter).

then we watched the sun set.

rreeaaalllyyyyyyy watched it.

and appreciated it.

i had my camera in the car, but i didn't touch it. 

i wanted to soak in the sunset with every cell of my being.

and remember it. the feeling of it. 

the way the water looked, calm and reflecting the subtle pinks, oranges and blues as 

it meandered out to the bay.

the way the breeze played with the hem of my dress and tousled will's shirt.

the smell of the warm, heavy, brackish bay water.

they way you could close your eyes and the colors still stretched out like

watercolors across your eyelids.

i wanted to live it.

and live it i did.

thank you jennifer, for your beautiful photos - and for helping 

me remember what it's like to live.
