Ronald and I took this picture together right after celebrating with family and friends at our wedding reception.
I still scratch my head wondering how eight years blazed by so quickly. I don't even feel like we've been married that long, and I'm thinking that's a really good thing! Ronald, here's to another eight years and eighty-eight more after that.
Ronald celebrated number 32 back in June. I made him a chocolate pudding pie - my first try at making a pie and it was really good! The kids thought so too. Ronald's not a fan of chocolate (*gasp* not normal, I know!), but he still had a piece. Bless his heart.
Here's a goodie I found that I had completely forgotten about. Totally makes me smile. I think I need to blow this one up poster size and hang it up as a reminder to Miss Cadence and Clarkie that they do love each other and are able to get along despite the eighty trillion squabbles they go through every day. And to think that they are only three and four. I shudder to think what it will be like when they are teenagers. Yikes!
And I can't leave out the baby who is obviously not a baby anymore. He'll be seventeen months tomorrow and I'm sad because each time I look at him he loses more and more baby chub. *sniff*
Let's see . . .
New blog banner photo - we have a frequent visitor in the pond behind our backyard. A heron, I believe. Beautiful bird. The kids and I look for him every morning. He's such a graceful bird, I'm hoping to get an even better picture of him next time.
New pic in the sidebar - thanks to my pal Grace for taking photos of us during her most recent visit this past weekend. Had the best time with her here since her whirlwind visit (36 hours to be exact!) involved a salon/spa, haircuts, highlights, Sahrie, lunch, shopping and a wedding. Good times. Thank you, Grace!
Have a happy weekend!
Unfortunately all three kids have had fevers all week so we decided to stay home and celebrate for the fourth. My parents came for lunch and bbq'd for us, and our neighbor had a impressive fireworks display at night which we watched through the windows because Clark is terrified of the noise. I made a new dessert that pretty much rocked, a raspberry trifle I found off of allrecipes.com. Finally used that trifle bowl I got for our bridal shower eight years ago, haha! Hope you and yours are having a fun and safe holiday weekend.
