JULY 8 - 5 CREATIVE IDEAS TO DO ON YOUR ANNIVERSARY

CREDIT VIA

July 8th is our anniversary!  We got married in Wilmington, NC outdoors in July!  Yes, it was hot, but it was beautiful! We both love the beach, so we knew we wanted to get married at the beach or nearby. This year we celebrated our 19th year!  Fortunately, we are typically at Topsail for our anniversary so doing nothing is perfect.  We almost always go to dinner  at the local white tablecloth restaurant, The Beach Shop Grill, which is always fabulous. (Side note: Our sixteen year old, is the dishwasher at the Beach Shop this summer!)

 This year, for our anniversary, I wanted to do to plan something special for my hubby, so I combed Pinterest for ideas.  Here were the top 5 fun ideas I found for celebrating anniversaries.

Vacationers Don't Throw Your Food Away! Support Friends Feeding Friends - Topsail Island

Friends Feeding Friends - Topsail kicked off this past Saturday June 21, 2014.   F3, (the shortened version of the name) is an effort to stock the local food pantry by accepting donations of food from vacationers departing the island after a week's stay. 

If you do not have leftovers from your vacation week, you can still participate by making a monetary donation.

Participation isn't confined to vacationers either.   Locals are asked to throw a few extra items in their grocery cart for donation to the pantry as well.  It would be wonderful to have participation by our local merchants and citizens.
