How would YOU celebrate?

I'll tell you how WE celebrated. On top of our 6th anniversary (10/13) and M's 2nd birthday (10/12), H finally finished all the major projects in the back yard. He has a few TINY one-afternoon projects to do, but all the major stuff is done: the deck, the fence, the fountain, the stone walkway, the plantings.

So, tonight we celebrated. Bellini's on the new deck, after dark and with candles. The quiet surrounded us, enveloping us in it's silky darkness. We enjoyed sweet conversation, broken only by the sound of the fountain.

Our little piece of paradise.

What a superb photo. On the black background I could just imagine the silky darkness enveloping the two of you in your piece of paradise. So great to enjoy the rewards of all your hard work too.
(ps: don't want to sound thick but...what's a bellini?)
