I really can't believe it's taken me this long to do these pages. Part of the problem is thinking about adding info etc. about the pandemic in it but not wanting it to take up too many pages. So, thank God Persnickety Prints has the Covid-19 Timelines so I printed one for each month so far and just added them. Since they are 4"x8" I'll have to think of a photo to put on the other side.

Happy 45 Year Anniversary!!
45 years!!
That's a REALLY long time! We've been blessed in so many ways!!
Like the healthy birth of our 3 kids and 3 grandkids.

Wonderful grands and a new one on the way! |

Traveling far and wide...
My favorite trip was to the UK and staying at the Hard Days Night Hotel in Liverpool. |
We've had lots of laughs. Scary times too! And fun!!!
Ziplining in Hocking Hills with Joe & Diane |
Our favorite winter getaway..Riviera Maya this time with Jenn & Dan. |
We've run in a few 5k's together and we starting running again recently. Our hope is to run in 5k's when we travel to different places.

It's the little things (and big)
The little things...
It was back in April, all of a sudden my gold chain with little hearts on it that Paul bought me about 30 years ago, broke ๐ข.
I was so sad. And grateful though that it happened in front of me and I didn't lose it somewhere. Of course being April everywhere was shut down. So I took it to a jewelry store this past Wednesday and they called me today to say it was fixed. Only $15 and I have one of my most prized possessions back. I'm thrilled.
I love this online store..Buddha Groove and recently purchased a set of earrings. They are so pretty..
I finished a little sweater I knitted for Lottie. I hated the pattern. Originally it was for 0-3 months. A lady had altered the pattern to fit 12-18 months. I used that pattern as a test and it was too small for her in the arms. So when I made this one I made a lot larger. It's still too tight. I think I'll stick with shawls, blankets, scarves, hats and socks.
And some big things...
Jenn and Dan did a FaceTime gender reveal. IT WAS SO EXCITING!!!
Yesterday I went and got the two front windows tinted. Having a police officer for a daughter is intimidating in that process. I feel I want to go back and get the 4 a shade darker LOL.
Paul saw a raccoon in our yard with what looked like a beat up face. He thinks it may have gotten in a fight or something. I called Avon's finest and they sent an officer right out. He took it in the back (away from any kids) and shot it. He then took it away. Poor thing.
I'll leave you with some signs of the times funnies...
As always...thanks for stopping by..

Thankful Thursday!
Hey-Hey,
Long time no see..like May? A lot has happened but it's Thursday and there's so much I'm thankful for...
I'm thankful for my hubby and kids whom without I'd surely be nuts (or nuttier) by now with this pandemic.
I'm thankful for Face-Time because I get to see Elliott whenever Jenn or Dan are home for breakfast.
