10 Years!

10 years ago today we said "I do!" We still "do!"

This is Justin's gift to me. The 10 year anniversary gift is tin or metal. Isn't this the best use of metal for a gift for me? I am so happy! I have been wanting one of these for a long time. It is sweet to me because I can just see us celebrating anniversary after anniversary, year after year, side by side on this glider!

We enjoyed a fun daytime date while Jack was at his last day of preschool today. We went to Dallas & just strolled around uptown. I think our favorite shoppe was a toy store with fun vintage toys. We picked up several neat things for Jack's birthday. :)

We ate lunch at Bubba's. That was some gOoOoOd home cookin' ! Justin lOvEd the homemade banana pudding. We drove around and admired the fancy -schmancy homes on the beautiful tree-lined streets of Highland Park, and then made our way home to pick up Jack from school.

It was a fun, fun, fun time with my honey! I would much rather have a day of simple fun than a fancy night out. I think that is why we are so happy together...we are both pretty laid back and low maintenance! We don't have extreme "highs" but, by the same token, we don't have the "lows". We are simple, even, content, and HAPPY!

Spring has Sprung!

Here is a sampling of what is blooming in my yard right now.
Ahhhhh, Spring....
Spring bouqets fresh from the yard!

One of my five precious peonies that bloomed this spring!

Roses tumbling over the fence...


My back fence is covered, top to bottom, in these sweet pale pink roses
