Happy 40th to Us!

Today is our 40th Wedding Anniversary.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MY LOVE.

A wonderful weekend. A wonderful surprise. Still savoring it. Will write long version soon for anyone who wants to read about it.

Short version:
Mike and Matt cooked up a scheme.
Matt Flew in from DC on Friday night.
The guys just showed up at our house together Saturday morning.
We were surprised.

The four of us spent the rest of the day together.
They took us out for a great dinner.
Both spent the night.
The first time in years our little family were together like the old days.

Everyone in Cincinnati was sworn to secrecy.
I cooked French toast with Challah for breakfast.
We went computer shopping. I got computer lessons.
Some of us saw The Lost Boys of Sudan

Matt went home.
Mike went back to work.
Pete and I are going out tonight together.
Three dinners out in a row!!!
Can't believe it's Forty Years. We're still young.

More later...

Happy Anniversary and please try this all natural ant spray. It sure worked for me! And no I don't work for or own any stock in the company! You can buy it online at www.spray-n-grow.com or at Savon. It's all natural, and has a great minty smell. Ants hate mint! The manufacturer is Victor and its called Poison Free Ant & Roach Killer.

Thank you all for your kind words and for your good wishes. I learn from each and every one of you.

Mary: I remember "pretty maids in pink". We ran into an old friend some years ago whose daughter was our flower girl. She told me that when her daughter was married, that she insisted on simple pink dresses for her bridesmaids, that were almost identical to the ones in our wedding. She was 4 years old at the time.

Also, at my 45th High School Reunion, I finally reconnected with one of my long lost bridesmaids.
