These past two weeks have been…just wonderful! Life has it’s ups and downs and the Lord knows that I’ve seen plenty of downs, but in the last two weeks, I have seen mostly UPS!
Getting to see our grandson Cameron was a big plus! Cameron is three and talking up a storm. At one point when we were sitting at a red light with Cameron in the car seat, he all of a sudden said, “Hi Barbara!” I said, who’s Barbara? He said you are my grandma, Mimi. Oh what a kid!
Thanksgiving was spent at my son Brodie’s house. His future wife Sara did a great job with the food and the company was fun. We don’t spend enough time with Brodie and Sara, but we plan on spending a lot more time with them in the future. They want to spend Christmas with us, too.
My birthday was such a great one this year! My husband Randy got me a Pandora bracelet with three charms: a ladybug (that signifies my Mom), a diamond cross (that signifies our love of God) AND a charm that says: together forever. Awwww…besides that, I got that list of WHY he loves me, PLUS a dinner out, PLUS a beautiful card..PLUS…we’ll just stop at that one.
Besides attending our wonderful church every Sunday, we also try to go to the couple’s events that they provide. This year that included going to our very first prom! We had so much fun! We were finalists in the “Dating Game” and almost pulled off a win by competing in a Dance OFF! We boogied on down against 30 year olds and certainly gave them a run for their money. We also had such a nice dinner and a few romantic slow dances in between.
This weekend we are going to see the Singing Christmas trees. AND our one year anniversary is coming up on Christmas Eve. It’s been a year! and God willing we shall have many more years of wedded bliss.
God has been so good to us.
We have both of our families that we love so much ( a special shout out to sisters in law Stephanie and Pam for their loving support AND son Randy Luke who really went out of his way to make my birthday special~~), PLUS our two dogs and three cats PLUS the love for our church family and our friends. My cup runneth over…:)
I just can’t stop smiling.
all the BEST,
Best Life Barb
