A couple days ago was Luke's and my three year anniversary. It honestly seems like so long ago, but not. I am so happy to be married to such a kind man who deals with all of my dramatics and plays cards with me (maybe that should be the other way around(lol)).
We decided to celebrate by going out to a restaurant called 'Super Baleadas'. Baleadas are like the local food that is pretty much a bean and cheese burrito with anything else you want in it - aka, awesomeness. We went with our new friends Natalie and Tyler (the Kindergarten teacher and IT teacher/guy). Once there we decided to continue on to 'Ex-patriots' which is a popular bar down here.
When we got there we met another teacher from the school, Erika and her boyfriend Ken. During the night there was a man singing who came over to asked what brought me to La Ceiba. I told him that Luke and I just got jobs teaching at Mazapan and he promptly said "my daughter will be a first grader there!' aka my student! One thing that we figured out very quickly was that everyone in La Ceiba knows everyone. It is a very small community, so I should have been prepared to meet someone I would be connected to at the bar.
Anyway, we decided to leave and Luke snuck away (I thought to pay the bill) but as soon as he returned, the dad asked if anyone was celebrating their anniversary... tricky husband. Luke asked for my hand and brought me up to dance. It was very sweet and romantic, he played 'I can't help falling in love with you' one of our favs and I felt very swooned. I am very very lucky.
The next day we decided to buy ourselves an anniversary gift. We went to a furniture store and fell in love with a dining room table made of Cyprus. It was a little more expensive then some other tables but we both just loved it and look forward to using it for years and years to come. Here are some photos.
