Seeing as we took our friends Jackie and Cheri on our honeymoon, we also took them to Disney World with us on this trip. It is just good common sense, one should never travel without an entourage. I also find it rather relaxing because there is someone who is willing to listen to Hisselfness prattle on, long after I have tuned out.
We met Jackie and Cheri when we did the Disney Cruise Line Panama Canal Repositioning cruise in 2008. What an amazing trip that was! Even more amazing and remarkable were the friends we made on that trip. These were friendships that have stood the test of time and have proven to be very real.
Last year, we had the fiasco with the marriage in Windsor, Canada. A disastrous event of which we never speak. When that went all sour, we decided to get married in California. Our cruiser friends who lived in California on hearing this, decided to throw us a wedding. Kelly and Nan organized the wedding. Kelly and her husband Jonathan were our witnesses. It was a wonderful event and we were extremely touched. I'm not sure we even knew how to show how touched we felt, because for 21 year we had been so insular and used to having our relationship be more of a battle, that to have so many people truly happy for us and supportive came as a bit of a shock.
So back to our anniversary dinner. Our first anniversary, which is odd, because in June we celebrated our 22 year anniversary.
Our wedding anniversary dinner was to be held at Boma, and our friend Monica who lives in Orlando was also to celebrate with us.
Dinner at Boma proved to be wonderful as always. For a change, I can't even find something snide to say about it. We have always had a good experience there.
The women surprised us with an anniversary cake with an edible wedding photo of us. Very nice. I have at last achieved something that I thought I never would. Something that only the great and really famous achieve. Having my face immortalized in buttercream.
I ask you, could life possibly get any better than that?

I'd lean towards being immortalized in dark chocolate than buttercream (dairy allergy :)) but it is pretty cool. What makes life worth living is the unexpected places we find new friends and the joy they bring us and we give to them.
Aw, what a cool cake! :) Sounds like a nice anniversary celebration with great friends. Congrats again! Love the pictures. :)
