Anniversary?

Today

may or may not be

my anniversary.

I know,

we should know this

but it happened like this:

We decided on a date

the 10th,

my husband's parents anniversary date.

Something he could remember.

Then we couldn't get off work.

So we planned to wed on the 11th.

Then we were able to get off work on the 10th.

Then the venue wasn't available.

Then it was.

Then the minister had a conflict.

Then some of the bridal party had challenges.

By the following year,

we couldn't remember which date the deed occurred.

Yes, I know I should dig around and find that #!@!# certificate,

but does it really matter?

What matters is that I've been married to a great guy

for 29 years.

He's a kind human being, 

who is filled with compassion.

He is a great father and grandfather,

and he's the best friend I've ever had.

I'd marry you again under that banana tree.

A story for another time. :)

This Dog Loves Ikea

You know my favorite girl:

The one who doesn't like blueberries.

Well, she does love something:

Ikea

Ikea balls to be exact.

We bought them a year ago.

Notice the blue ball in her mouth.

They came in packages of three.

We bought three packages.

This is the last ball.

She chews them until they start to split in half.

That's when she really loves them,

because they make the greatest popping sound.

We've gone to Ikea several times trying to find more. 

No luck.

So, does anyone have any suggestions?

We're getting desperate.

Costume Update

So you remember Grandson TNT

(his grandfather thought those initials for a boy child were perfect.)

He's very happy with his biker jacket

and is planning on going out with his auntie

to get boots.

Well, here is his younger brother

MRE

He wanted to be a dinosaur.

Checking himself out in the mirror.

Nice tail.

Trying out his roar.

Grandfather asked,

"What about his face?"

No problem,

MRE has it all figured out.

Close up:

Not sure what to think.

But I do know he's happy.
