MAWRIDGE

I probably misspelled the title, but that's alright!
Tonight is BDD's and my anniversary.
Due to Leap Year this year, we are actually celebrating our anniversary on the same night we married. We were married as the sun began her descent into the foamy surf, around 6:30pm.

Then later on, after many drinks, (our first drink as man and WIFE was a shared sip of Sprite, because there's a story to that, and following the Sprite sip, a shot of Tequila with Tabasco, no, not really a story there, just more a signature drink) we headed up to our room, for the night. First though, we took a detour out onto the Beach to tickle our toes once again in the free exfoliation of the sand. There we were as man and wife, with a hum and a buzz, ready to stroll along the sea's beginning, and mans end, when we noticed the evening sky had hues of purple and green, a sign that a storm was around the horizon, working his way towards our location.

Don't worry, it wasn't a hurricane, and we were quite excited because I LOVE THUNDERSTORMS, and for some reason it was even cooler because, well, it was our wedding night. With a balcony so close to the water we could almost feel the spray, we headed to our initial destination, our hotel room!!

As we arrived into our room, there were gifts from family that consisted of drinks, and cookies, platters of noshing delights, and there was our friend, the world of water. There she was with her foamy wonder dancing along with the rain pellets of Mr Storm. The light show was magnificent, and the echos of never ending rolling thunder was a great delight to be shared with my new husband.

The storm was so intense, that we retired to our balcony area outside, and sat there drinking our gifts, as we captured the storms magic on the extra space of the cassette that held the majority of our wedding ceremony that was given to us earlier that night via video.

Yes we taped over our ceremony. But we didn't realize that until the morning after.
WHOOPS!
Even funnier then that?

As we headed towards our wedding bed, where rose petals lay waiting to be tossed off the bed, as our lips locked, our bodies connected, the intensity of our passion grew, a knock at the door.

BDD opened up the door and there stood one of the room service attendants, a young southern female, fully aware of what was going on, knowing that it was our wedding night having seen us earlier and throughout the day. She looked at my husband rather sheepishly, and in her hands a gift of wine and cheese, meats and sweets. But the priceless part was the words she uttered as she made her way into the room to place the beautiful last minute extra on the dining table, "I know, it's your special time, I am so sorry, I tried to tell her but she insisted that I deliver this platter right now." My husband tipped her and she left the room, a very personalized feeling that our wedding spot provided, the hotel staff treated us like royalty. Then, we turned to the overwhelming gift that lay waiting in wonder on our dining room table, and opened up the card.

"Thought you might get hungry! Mazel Tov! We Love you! Love Mom and Dad."

It was from my mother in law.
