Our Wonderful Years...

Over the course of the average lifetime you meet a lot of people. Some of them stick with you through thick and thin. Some weave their way through your life and disappear forever. But once in a while someone comes along who earns a permanent place in your heart.

Brown hair, brown eyes. When she smiled, I smiled. When she cried, I cried. Every single thing that happened to me that mattered, in some way, had to do with her. After all, she was my girl. And I knew that she understood that in some small way my achievements were her achievements.

Catching up....

Phew...its been a long few weeks. Our weekends seem to have just flown by!

Recently we've spent weekends out at the farms (both of them now),

Football games...
Watching way too much tv....




I seriously *heart* Jim and Pam from the Office...

And just in general being away from home. We took this last Sunday off to relax and catch up on the pile of movies we seem to have accumulated (among them, Fracture, The Queen and a bunch of others), then my Christmas Cookie Cookbook came in the mail and I'm dying to make some delicious cookies...and so did the Young Adventures of Indiana Jones (I couldn't resist buying it, I know the holidays are close!)... so we spent the better part of the day wrapped up in blankies watching and catching up with being home. ( Yes, that includes like 5 loads of laundry and vacuuming)

We've been enjoying the "homebody" feeling for a few days now. Its nice to have a few days down. Especially when I know that Thanksgiving, Christmas and all the fun festivities that go along with it are right around the corner, and I refuse to miss out on holiday fun! Also, having a cold will force you into hiding...if only to please your co-workers.

Anyways, here are a few things that need to happen in the next few weeks...

On our to-do list:

  1. Find DJ
  2. Find Officiant
  3. Finish pile of movies and return to owners
  4. Make lots of cookies (ok, its not really a "to-do" item, but I cannot resist)

If anyone has suggestions for DJs and Officiants we are looking!

Here's hoping everyone has a safe and fun Halloween. We'll be handing out candy between watching Pushing Daisies and Private Practice. Hope that we'll be seeing you soon!
