00:01:00.000 and let's get into it. So the first thing that I want to talk about is that my husband's and my
00:01:04.360 third anniversary is just around the corner. I am so excited to celebrate with him. We just kind of
00:01:10.840 celebrated it a little bit early, but it's just so cool. We've been married three years. We've been
00:01:15.940 together for four. We actually got married one day under a year from having met and started dating.
00:01:21.680 So whenever we celebrate our wedding anniversary, it's also our dating anniversary. And so we've
00:01:27.080 been together for four years now. So I feel so, so lucky to have him in my life. And I just feel
00:01:33.460 so lucky and blessed to be a wife and to be able to have such a wonderful husband.
00:01:39.780 So we actually went to Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg. That's kind of become
00:01:44.780 a tradition for us just because we live in Virginia and it's an easy place for us to visit. We love
00:01:50.160 Busch Gardens. It's one of our favorite theme parks. It's kind of like Epcot, but just a little
00:01:56.500 different. I've never actually been to Epcot, but it's really, it's really fun. And we had just a
00:02:01.820 great time. And then we also did a little bit of Williamsburg as well. And one of the things that
00:02:07.440 we absolutely love is my husband has a little bit of Celtic ancestry. So whenever we celebrate our
00:02:14.280 anniversary, we always kind of buy something that's in that vein. So this year we actually purchased
00:02:19.860 matching rings and I loved that idea. I thought it was really romantic. We obviously have our
00:02:27.160 wedding rings and then now we have another ring that is just something to signify our relationship.
00:02:33.860 And I just thought that was lovely. I have my perfume. I got this Irish perfume. I got kind of a
00:02:39.260 couple things of it, like a roller ball and a body wash. He got a cologne and he also bought me
00:02:46.020 an incredibly beautiful bracelet, which I can't show you right now because it is actually at the
00:02:50.420 jewelers. It was just a little bit big on me. So we had to take out one of the links, but it's really,
00:02:55.880 it's stunning. It has Konamara marble. You can look that up. It's really interesting as well as
00:03:01.280 Moscanite. So it was just a lovely trip. And I just, I love going to Williamsburg. It's a really cool
00:03:08.200 place. Colonial Williamsburg is really cool. And I really recommend visiting if you haven't been.
00:03:13.860 If you are, let me know in the comments, is your anniversary coming up? Because I know this is a
00:03:19.500 pretty common time of year for people to get married. So I'd love to know if you have an
00:03:24.040 anniversary coming up or a wedding or if you're attending any weddings. Let me know in the comments.
00:03:29.220 I also am going to be posting a video all about Shavuot next week. We just celebrated Shavuot,
00:03:34.020 which is a Jewish holiday. And it's a pretty important one. So I did do a whole video just
00:03:39.840 dedicated to explaining it because not everyone knows what this holiday is. They may not even
00:03:44.640 have heard of it. It's not a common one like Passover or Hanukkah that you've heard of. It
00:03:48.600 might be just a little bit more off the beaten track, but it's very important to us. So keep
00:03:52.500 an eye out for that video. The last thing I wanted to talk about today is something that is trending
00:03:57.360 on Twitter, and that is Candace Owens talking about the use of they, them pronouns. So Demi
00:04:04.140 Lovato recently announced that she wants to be referred to by they, them pronouns. And this is
00:04:10.060 what Candace Owens had to say. Announcing that your pronouns are they, them is just poor grammar.
00:04:16.100 I don't care your reasons. Please stop trying to make low academic achievement a thing. Now this went
00:04:21.760 viral, and of course people hated it. But I have to agree. This drives me crazy, okay? They and them
00:04:29.940 are plurals. And you are a singular human being. So I'm not going to say they, them when I'm referring 0.97
00:04:38.580 to one person. They and them, from a strictly grammatical perspective, means that you view
00:04:45.640 yourself as multiple people. I don't really think that it makes sense for us to use they and
00:04:51.720 them to describe a singular individual. They and them is just not grammatically correct to refer to
00:04:58.400 one person. And I agree with Candace in that I don't think it's acceptable. We don't need to call
00:05:03.940 singular people by plural pronouns. That's my thoughts on things. Let me know your thoughts in
00:05:11.500 the comments. I'd love to hear. Thank you so much for watching today's video. Please make sure to
