I've come to realize this is a big deal in more than one way.
I've always known that it's a big deal when your parents stay together. Divorce happens a lot & honestly, who but God knew that my parents would make it to 40 years?
Now that I'm married myself I understand this truth from a whole different perspective.
I give my parents a hearty WAY TO GO! GOOD JOB!
And we gave them a big cake. It seemed like a good idea.
That same night we celebrated my G-pa's 87th birthday. This happens to be the only decent shot I got of him all night. I had to load it into my Instagram app on my phone to snazz it up a bit. I really like the way it turned out.
By the way, if you use Instagram, let me know so that I can follow you! It's a lot of fun but I don't know many people out there. Please be my friend *grin*
At some point in the course of the evening G-pa realized that I was snapping pics of everyone. From that moment on he decided to be ornery. He was making faces that made him look like a stroke victim. What a goof!
Mike & I got him that sign for their cabin out in the country. It says "Welcome to the Cabin." I love those little plaques. I have several around our house that say things like "Work hard. Pray hard. Trust God." Very good little reminders. I need one to keep in front of me at all times that says "Be Quiet." Not just in the stop talking sense (although sometimes I DO need to quit talking!) but in the sense of keeping of a quiet mind, spirit, & body. I am just a noisy, tense, even sometimes twitchy person. Gotta learn to be quiet!

Yeah, we were watching the NCAA tournament during dinner. Is anyone else heartbroken about Butler's loss last night? *sob*
