This is probably stupid…but when I had a BeautiControl spa party back on July 20 (I remember because it was the last thing I did that I considered birthday celebration related, haha) I got the BC Margarita Party Set – foot scrub, foot crème, body lotion and lip balm, all of which smells like a delicious margarita. Seriously, if I didn’t know any better I would stick the end of the tubes in my mouth and EAT THIS STUFF because it smells so wonderful.
I think I will always associate that smell with our first anniversary. I remember getting ready for dinner at a winery with a little restaurant inside and going into the bathroom in our hotel room and slathering myself in the lotion before I put on my pretty summer party dress, and using the lip balm before and after we ate.
It will always remind me of how our table was in the perfect place on the deck, far enough away from the speakers that the live band didn’t make us want to die…how the temperature was PERFECT and there was a nice breeze… It will remind me of the chicken cob sandwich I ate, the LandShark beer my husband drank, how effortlessly handsome he is and how he looked at me that evening…It will remind me of how I breathlessly giggled as I turned down the wine at the winery, knowing I was probably pregnant (my boobs were sore and starting to get big and I just had “that feeling”)… It was such a great evening overall, made all the more magical by the secret knowledge that something was happening in my body.
Yeah…I would definitely go back to that, as long as I didn’t know what would happen a few short weeks later.
