Oh What a Beautiful Day

OK she is naked :)

Setting outside in KY at my daughter's home it is such a beautiful day. It is 77 degrees, sunshine and a wonderful breeze. My 5 1/2-year old granddaughter was splashing in her pool grandpa allowed me to buy, lawn and garden work is being done by my son-n-law and tonight he will cook a trash can turkey. Yum yum. 

I drove down Wednesday morning for the preschool graduation and here it is Saturday afternoon already and I will head home tomorrow morning. 

Our snail finding walk.

I do not appreciate the long drive but it has been so worth it. I love family time and there simply has not been enough of it.

38 Years Together

38 years together and nearly sane ^+^  In those 38 years we have had ups and downs like many couples,  however, it has been worth it to grow old together. We also have many proud moments such as; the birth of our son, Ian (long I); the birth our daughter Jasmine, and the births of our 4 biological grandchildren.

I was at the hospital for the birth of our first grandson and our granddaughter Zeely Jade. I got to see Zian moments after birth, as he was a C-section; however, I was in the birthing suite when Miss Z made her appearance into this world. 

 When it came to grandson number 2, Ryder, I was with Zian at home, as he had bronchitis and had to stay away from his new little brother for 3 days. When it came to son number 3, Parker, Ryder and I were in the waiting room waiting the news of his arrival and Zian came as soon as he could then had to go back to school.

 Today our anniversary celebration, of our 38 years together, we went to Logan's and then Pet smart and took the evening off of all garden work to watch the Chicago Cubs on TV. 

Life is not always easy, however, country life is good. I love my family with all my heart.

If the hearts get stale and hard who cares, for this project it does not matter.
