the gamut

Yesterday:

8:00 a.m. - Help move Brooke into her new apartment at Brigham Young University

11:30 p.m. - Be at the elementary school for Adam's kindergarten assessment.

A college Senior. A kindergartner. And everything in-between.

I have the whole gamut.

And I'm really tired.

Adam playing in the grass today, his first day of kindergarten.

sixty years

That's how long my parents have been married. Sixty years. Today.

I was talking with my dad last week and asked him if he had a recent picture of the two of them for me to submit to the newspaper. He told me that indeed he did have one. But after asking a few details I found out that the most recent photo that he has was taken 14 years ago! He thought that would be fine. To me, that wasn't good enough. So I made them pose for me at my nephew's reception last weekend. I am proud to say....this is how my parents look after 60 years of marriage - happy, content, in love. And don't you think they look young?!

Their marriage has been a good one. I have never once seen nor heard my parents argue, quarrel, or exchange harsh words with each other......"That's because we never, ever have," my mom will tell me. It's true. A match made in heaven. Two peas in a pod. Soul-mates.

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa, Sam and Maryloo!

slacker

I've slacked horribly on my India blog. It would be really nice if the blogger people would allow us to upload more than 5 pictures at a time (it actually will only let me do 4, and even at that it takes about 10 minutes each upload!). Duh.

So I've finally posted .....
