We have not been to Key West since my wedding at the beginning of July. Brandon and I used to try to go every few months, but it's harder to get away since we bought our house a couple years ago. We thought about going over Christmas Break, but I pushed for staying home in our pajamas and watching movies for two weeks. That was a great two weeks, but we have missed Key West.
I am the lucky one who has recently gotten to go back. But I didn't get to go with my husband.
Now, I had a great weekend with two of my greatest girlfriends. We ate, we drank, we shopped, we swam, and we went to a drag show! We had an all-around fantastic time. But it just wasn't the same, being in Key West without Brandon, and it was the first time I've been there that I haven't felt completely bummed out to be going home. Yes, we had a ton of fun; but I couldn't shake the feeling that I was kind of betraying my Brandon!
After all, Key West is our place! It's been our place since we drove down there on a whim nearly four years ago. Since that first trip, we've been there numerous times; and we've discovered something new on every single one of those trips. We have made so many wonderful memories in this unique little city, including our engagement and, of course, our wedding! We've been to Key West more than we've been anywhere else, and that's really something when you consider that Disney World is closer!
So, while I had a really good time this weekend with my girls, I think that's probably the last time I'll ever go to Key West without my husband.
