:: three years of marriage ::

We've just celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary; but our first anniversary with a third person in tow.

We kept it simple but very sweet, and made our way down to Ocean Grove for Willem's first beach visit. It was a beautiful day (26'C) but not warm enough to go swimming. So we walked, shopped & ended with a picnic dinner overlooking the sea.

Starting with breakfast. I made a chia seed pudding the night before, with cacao added (yep, Willem can tolerate cacao now! So happy). Topped with a granola-type crumble made up of walnuts, puffed brown rice, shredded coconut and cacao nibs blitzed in the Thermomix. Felt very indulgent yet completely healthy!

{ someone had to miss a nap }

{ thai green curry chicken rice paper rolls from home, and minimum chips ;) }

Looking forward to returning and getting sandy & salty next time around!

I feel so blessed to have spent 3 years by Jason's side. We've had our tough moments, and disagreements for sure. But looking back from today, I can see so many ways that we both have changed to accommodate the other's feelings, priorities & needs.Things are better now than they have ever been. People say the 'honeymoon' period is something that leaves, but I disagree. If you work at marriage and keep the other person first in your life, your own life will only get richer and more wonderful each passing year.

I love you hubby.
