“Throw”ing Our Life Away

Ever since we started dating we’ve frequently done day trips..Savannah Ga. being among our favorite..(can’t count how many times we have been there) even when our finances didn’t match our desires we still made the best we could with what we had.. I still remember vividly going to St. Augustine for our anniversary with maybe $200 in our pockets..and that turned out to be one of the best trips ever..we walked around rather than burning gas, we scoped out the things that were free admission…and we shared meals..but, the laughs and memories made it seem as if we went with thousands in our pockets instead…since then we have traveled to places we only dreamed about knowing it was a true blessing from God..so, what we started doing was buying a pin (suggested by my husband, thanks babe) to commemorate every where we have been..knowing this would eventually add up to a lot of pins..storage was the question..but, I knew I didn’t want to just put them away in a box..I wanted them to be displayed so we could look back over them fondly..and my solution was pinning them to a chair throw given to us by a sweet lady that once was a visitor to our church..so, that we could easily seem them and eventually place it upon our wall…we only have a handful of pins so far..because we didn’t start this process until later in life..but, I know eventually either we will fill it up…or it can be something we pass along to one of our children and they add their own personal adventures..so, that all who look at it can perhaps say that we were just… “throw”ing our life away…
