Celebrating

Beau took me out to dinner Friday night for “date night”. We were celebrating a couple of things.

 

1.       Our five-month anniversary. You think “you’re celebrating five months”? Yes. We celebrate anything. In this day and age, we want to celebrate every anniversary. We love it!

2.       We bought a house! We finally found the “one” we’ve been looking for for months. If we had written everything we wanted in a house on a list, everything would be checked off. This has everything we want and even more. We feel so fortunate and blessed to have found it and are able to afford it. We have many, many dreams for this house. We’ll have and raise children in this home, we’ll entertain and love people here, we’ll celebrate Christmases and nest here eventually. We’re so excited! Home inspection this week. It looks like we’ll be moving in the middle of October. Hootie Hoo! (That’s for you mom.)

Celebratory Limon Sunrise
Ice
1.5 oz limoncello
4.5 oz freshly squeezed orange juice (about 3 juice oranges)
Splash of rose grenadine

Fill a high ball with ice. Pour the limoncello and orange juice into the glass. Top with a splash of grenadine, but don’t stir if you want the “sunrise” effect. Let it settle to the bottom. Serves 1.
