25 years

Yes, It's true. We finally made it. 25 years-Silver wedding- I remember when people would have their silver wedding anniversary I thought those people are old -(well, Alden is old (50) and I am still very young, (ok, middle age, ouh, I don't like the sound of that) Well, tonight Alden decided he wanted to grill some food for us and so we had steaks on the grill, coleslaw, mushrooms and buns, then I made some homemade icecream in the ice cream maker Dillan gave him for father's day. We had left over brownies and apple pie from yesterday.

We talked about how blessed we are, not just monetary, but our health, the health of our children, that we have 3 wonderful bio boys and a wonderful daughter-in-law and 2 children on the way-God has been good to us and we give him all the praise and thanks for everything. Oh, yeah we drank some of the wine Kim and Derek gave us. I don't drink wine that much so I didn't really care for it, Alden loved it. I guess it is like coffee, I hardly ever drink it so he got a new coffee maker from Derek, Kim and Darin so I had to see if it tasted any better than the old, I dumped it out-I thought it tasted terrible, I guess I don't have a taste for it anymore. Now, I just have to wean myself off of bread and sugar-boy, would it be great to taste it and say it tastes terrible.
I love this picture of us, it was taken at the wedding.

Thanks Mom for your "very" nice comments. I know at times growing up you "Wondered" about me. I'm glad I made you proud, all with the help of the Lord and family and friends. "The Lord is good and his mercy endures forever."
