3 years over the line...

We just celebrated on March 27th, our 3 year anniversary of arriving to our beloved Sayulita. Looking back, It was an amazing time - feeling scared yet amazingly confident in the steps, actions and decisions we had taken up to that point. In retrospect, it was all by the seat of our pants, 2 dream-slackers wanting nothing more than some freedom and a place to start a family... and in this picture all I see is unstoppable partnership and love. Amazing..... reminds me of this Nitty Gritty Dirt Band song I always fuck up the lyrics to....

"I hear they buried lover's lane In a sea of tears and blame,
It's you and me go up in flames Baby, one step over the line...
They're drawin' boxes on the ground Just to make us look on down,
All we gotta do is look around And take it one step over the line -
one step over the line (sweet Jesus...) Come on baby, one step over the line..."

Today, we make sure we never forget those days of wonder, when some days being in paradise all but feels just like regular ol' life.... Never forget where ya come from, what you did to get where you are, and which line you want to cross next...

3 years later... older but wiser, and happier...
