Silver Celebration!

This is a big week for us--yesterday was my birthday...and today my honey and I celebrate our...
25th Wedding Anniversary!

What a short time ago this seems to have been!

\
God has blessed us with a wonderful family through this marriage!

We have had so many good times and made so happy memories that make up our love story!
We've endured hardships and difficulties too--but, together!
God has been good to us beyond measure--I am so thankful!

Happy 25th Anniversary Dear--looking forward to the ones to come!
I love you!

Special Days

Our lives have been busy ones lately as we try to adjust to a new schedule and have
lots of new things added to our days.
But, we took time in the midst of it all to have some special celebrations!


Yep, it was my birthday!



My family spoiled me all weekend with lots of special gifts, flowers, meals and cards. :)

I felt very pampered and loved!


Can you believe I had FOUR birthday cakes!?
The one pictured above is the one my sweet daughter made for me--an ice cream cake!
It gets a "10"!
My sweet hubby bought me the one pictured at the top, my mom made me a strawberry shortcake type one, and my dear neighbor made me a pineapple upside down cake!

Then, on Monday, my hubby and I spent the day celebrating our 24th wedding anniversary!
It was nice to have a day to ourselves...

You know, when you think about it, every day is a special day.
We should celebrate each day that we have as part of a family!
I feel blessed indeed to have such special days.
Enjoy yours!

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
Psalm 90:12

Current Events...

It seems as though I've been doing this alot lately-downloading pics and just doing one huge post to include them all--but, it's either that, or nothing due to time constraints! :)


Chippy got a little extra attention while his pal Bingley had surgery/neutering last week
Poor Bingley is trying to adjust to "life with a lampshade" right now
(you can also see his front leg was shaved for the iv)

Brad was finally successful in finding a used snowblower to
try and boost his employment during the winter months
We think Bing is cute-even with his "shade"
In further preparation for winter--we got our firewood over the weekend
Bri and I were busy harvesting our herbs
basil, rosemary, parsley and apple mint
Brad is busy working on his shed
Dad was kind enough to lend him a hand

We have spinach growing in the garden
I also planted garlic on Saturday--in between these rows

Calendula still blooms!

Marigolds are too

The kids did a surprise "Parent Appreciation Night"
last week, these are the beautiful flowers they gave me

Nasturtium still has lots of life left

Here's the herb basket Bri picked
(the purple is lavender)

Sunday we were blessed to be part of a lovely 50th anniversary celebration
Above, Anna gets everything ready for her parents
(the bride being honored is her Mom -standing on the far left)

This couple used to be Amish, and this "Wedding Corner" was
set up Amish style by their daughter (it was lovely!)

Some of the young people from our church
enjoying fellowship

Lovely Amy
Beautiful Susan

Table decorations

Brad "trying" to look innocent
...he must have done something!

Adorable Isaiah

Dashing Daniel

Sweet Jen

Nate--interesting pose! lol

Loved these table favors...
note the dainty hanky!

These were on the Wedding Corner tables

Here are the Bride and Groom on their
50th wedding Anniversary
Isn't that cake lovely?
May the Lord continue to bless them!

"Grow old with me! The best is yet to be." - Robert Browning


Well, who knew the day that the picture above was taken... that 22 years would fly by so fast?

Our life together has been a blessed one, no doubt about it!
I married the best man in the world! :)
Thank you honey for 22 of the best years of my life--I look forward
to sharing the ones  with you that are just around the corner!

Here's the whole poem:

GROW old along with me!

The best is yet to be,

The last of life, for which the first was made:

Our times are in his hand

Who saith, ``A whole I planned,

Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!''
