ABOUT US
Welcome to the Happily Ever Retired community!
We're Curt and Shari Lee — lifelong partners, now full-time fun-seekers. After years of hard work, we've traded the 9-to-5 grind for sunshine, family time, spontaneous adventures, and golden doodle cuddles.
We split our time between two of our favorite places: New Smyrna Beach, Florida and Blowing Rock, North Carolina. With our sweet pups, Charlie and Brodie, by our side, we embrace everything these beautiful towns have to offer.
Happily Ever Retired!
When we’re not exploring or relaxing, you’ll find us surrounded by our greatest joy — our four amazing children and nine lively grandkids (as of July 2024!). We share inspiration, resources, creative hobbies, and joyful ideas to make your retirement years feel lighter, brighter, and more fulfilling.
Here’s the truth: life isn’t about stuff — it’s about meaningful moments, cherished relationships, healthy habits, and embracing each day with intention.
Sure, life has ups and downs. We’ve had our share of grief and tough seasons too. But we’re firm believers in finding joy wherever possible — and making the most of this stage of life.
To us, retirement means freedom — to do what we want, when we want, where we want, and with the people we love.
So, welcome to our world. Let’s laugh more, explore more, and live fully. After all, you only live once — so let’s do it right.
Here’s to a joy-filled retirement!
– Curt & Shari
