Happy 10th Anniversary!

Oh the joy and rapture that comes from reaching a milestone!
We have accomplished a lot in 10 years of marriage, who'd a thunk it?
Our celebration will begin after we drop the kids off at mom's this
weekend and go on our merry way to enjoy each other's company ALONE!

Yeah....I am so in love with this man. This has been the hardest and best experience of my life so far. Three great kids and many moves around the country, and we are still laughing and loving one another. All I can say, is I hope this lasts forever!

Oh by the way, he is so stuck with me...never, ever getting this one off the hook. Besides, I now qualify for HIS social security...HAHAHAHA! A bit of an inside joke...

YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU BABE! Happy Anniversary!

Is It Summer Yet?

This is question of the day. Wyoming weather can change in an instant. Friday, it was 80! I mowed the lawn, got a sunburn, and thought to myself, "I LOVE the sun!" I think I even thanked the Lord for it. After spending the last few summers in a temperate rain forrest, we are all glad to see the sun on a regular basis. However, our new next-door neighbor has informed us that the weather we have been having here in Hanna, is very odd. I told him that we must have brought it with us from Alaska. He quickly agreed, adding,"It never rains like this in Wyoming!"

Well, since that glorious Friday, we have had, wind, rain, snow, sleet, and hail! Today, we woke up to snow. Then the wind really kicked up. The sun came out and melted the snow quickly. Just before lunch, the wind decided to howl again, and then came the hail, followed by more snow!

It is amazing to me how fast weather can come in. There was little visibility, and it looked like January, except for the green grass and leaves on the trees! Ice in Hell...yep! I have proof!

I have heard horror stories about the weather here. But, hey, we are NOT complaining! We know full well that it could be worse. And I still feel like I did when I was a kid...bad weather makes for great baking! The kids and I are off to make some cookies. I think a fire in the fireplace is in order as well! Hot chocolate...ummmmm! Just the other day we had a BBQ and made snow cones! Oh well, you have to make the best of whatever life brings your way. Today, we are enjoying the finer things...snuggled up with one another. Stay warm!
