I can't believe it, but my niece Whitney is 15 today! It seems like just yesterday that she was born and I was trying to get her bathed & to bed without too much struggle.
Our family is blessed to have such a pretty, smart, together, loving, and talented young lady. Happy Birthday to my Sweetie Girl!
Valetine's Day was a typical day at our house - get up, go to work, come home. However, we had some special time together and with our animals. Here's a video to show you the beginning of our special time together. It may be a bit difficult to hear Todd, but you'll get the gist of it!
After our backyard fun, we cooked a fabulous (and HUGE) dinner. We had steak, garlic mashed potatoes, bacon-wrapped asparagus, grilled onions and peppers, sauteed cremini mushrooms, and salad. We enjoyed it with a wonderful bottle of wine that we received as a wedding gift. For dessert, we had chocolate lava cakes with vanilla ice cream. No pictures since they went so fast!
It's about time we put some of our new china, flatware, and Waterford to use! Our first Valentine's Day as a married couple was fun, relaxing, enjoyable, and spent together - just like we like it.
Married, engaged, dating, or single, Valentine's Day is for everyone. Yes - it's a commercialized event, but it's also a day where everyone is just a little kinder and a little more thoughtful than usual. Can't we all use a day like that at least once a year?
I hope your day was a good one. On behalf of our family, our three happy canines send their wishes to you!
And when did it become February? Why did time seem to move so slowly when we were young & now it just flies by? I'll take it - if it'll get us closer to the end of the school year!
The dogs are enjoying the nice weather. Of course, they prefer to enjoy it asleep on our leather couches. (Rotten beasts.) Believe it or not, I don't have much to say today. Here's a picture that makes me smile:
Steve with one of his many nasty tennis balls. (on one of the leather couches w/ a pillow of course!)
And one more - Pippin enjoying the "Puppy Bowl" on television today. :)
We met November 11, 2003 and married March 10, 2007. We are the proud parents of our daughter, Kate (born 9.11.12), two dogs, one angel dog, one angel cat and three angel babies. Our hope and prayer was to add some human children to our family, but we have learned that dreams don't always come true. Our life isn't THAT exciting, but we're sharing it anyway!
