Best Husband Ever (take two)

July 22, 2010 | Uncategorized

So in case you missed my first best husband ever post, you can look HERE
Well, somehow, he outdid himself! I went to the gym this morning, then we met for lunch and I went to get groceries while he “went to the gym.” I came home and was on the phone with a client in the office when he came home. i got off the phone and went in the kitchen and he got down on one knee and I was so confused…then he handed me a car key/box things and I was again, confused, until I looked outside and this was sitting in the driveway!


I was so shocked! Bobby told me he had been planning it for a couple weeks, had gone to the dealership, haggled with the guy, etc! I of course gave him a big hug and immediately started crying. I was also very happy because Bobby drives a 1994 corvette with no AC or heat and it leaks when it rains, and so he is finally getting rid of it and will drive my 2007 4runner, so I am very happy he will have a good car now finally!
I of course had to get in

Best Husband ever! It is a 4runner limited, with leather seats, a sun roof, bluetooth, GPS/navigation system, voice command, heated seats, tailgate package, etc. etc. There are so many buttons I need to go read my manual. I am one lucky girl!!!

At the gym I did 30 min elliptical and a mile with incline on the treadmill at the gym.
Have a good night everyone!

QOTD: What is something nice your spouse has done for you?

    Love it!!! Great husband! Great blog! Sweet wheels!!! My nice-hubby award would have to be this past December – the night before the BRBMarathon (Baton Rouge)…remember that extremely COLD, ICY weather???? Well, that’s what was between us and Baton Rouge. Not to mention the fact that we spent the majority of the day in the ER with our 10 year old daughter – she had an ileus (intestinal obstruction – slight, thank goodness)…anywho, we got home around 5:30 from there, and my husband looked at me and said, “Do you really want to go to Baton Rouge?” My response???~!!!! “I did all that training. I’m going.” We all piled into the car, and he drove us there, slowly through the dark, rainy sleet! I was so happy – my daughter didn’t need surgery and I could run my race!

      July 24, 2010 at 11:56 am

      wow what an ordeal! so glad you got to run your race, but sorry about all the chaos!

  10. Caroline says

    July 25, 2010 at 6:48 am

    That is so awesome! He definitely earned extra brownie points for that one!! I had a 2000 4runner limited two cars ago…and loved it!

    • runningwithsass says

      July 25, 2010 at 7:44 am

    • runningwithsass says

Embarkation day on the Disney Wonder out of San Diego is pure organized chaos in the best way. Bags everywhere, everyone buzzing, and that moment you step onboard and suddenly forget how to function like a normal human.

We’re talking: Where are we even going first? Do we eat or explore or both immediately? Why does this already feel like the best decision ever?

And then the sail a wave party happens and… yeah. You’re gone. Mentally, emotionally, everything. 😭

If you know, you know…embarkation day hits different 🚢✨

Thanks @bestdayevervacay and Disney for hosting us on this magical adventure! Use the 🔗 in my bio to let then plan a cruise just like mine, down to the last detail!

Self-care always felt like something I’d start “wh Self-care always felt like something I’d start “when life slows down.”
So… never. 👀

I wanted something simple, personalized, and actually doable, not a 47-step routine I’d abandon in two days. That’s why I started using Mochi Health for skincare + wellness support, and it’s been one small thing that makes me feel more put together (even when I’m not).

If you’ve been wanting to get your skin and wellness together without overthinking it, I shared more in the reel. Link in bio for $40 off your first month.

San Diego snaps. 📸 Did you know Disney makes it San Diego snaps. 📸 

Did you know Disney makes it SO easy to fly into San Diego for a @disneycruiseline vaca? 🚢 (ad)

Let’s break it down :
1.) Flew into the San Diego airport
2.) Took a Lyft to @grandhyattsandiego which is super close by
3.) Walked right downstairs for dinner @seaport_village 
4.) The next morning you walk downstairs to a special table in the lobby to check in with DCL, show your passport, be extra luggage tags etc.
5.) Leave your luggage at the door of your hotel room. They will collect it and put it on the bus for you. 
6.) Meet downstairs at your designated time and board the bus
7.) Super short 5 min ride to the port on the Disney bus
8.) They handle your luggage, you just get on the ship! 🚢 

It was so nice having everyone nearby and coordinated for us! I highly recommend arriving a day before your cruise anyway if you are flying, and Disney made it seamless. 
Note that right now, the Grand Hyatt is the only San Diego area hotel that has the service of the Disney bus transportation to the port. 

Know what’s even more seamless? Having an agent from @bestdayevervacay plan all of this for you at no additional cost! Click the link in my bio and you can get a free, no obligation quote and start planning your magical vacation! 

Or, comment the word “cruise” below and I will send you the direct 🔗
