Happy 19th Anniversary!

Well Peter and I just celebrated our 19th wedding anniversary. It does not seem possible. I mean only OLD people are married that long. It is truly amazing. That morning I thought to myself it did not seem like 19 years but maybe more like 5 years. Peter later shared that it felt like more like 6 years. Wonder why the year difference? LOL! Anyways we celebrated by going out to dinner with the kids. Through out the day I thought about how blessed I am to have such a wonderful husband and how I really need to be a better wife. You see this may shock some but I am a horrible NAG. I know, I know, how can such a wonderful person as me be a nag? Hee hee I know most of those that know me the best will actually be nodding your heads. I mean people don't call him Saint Peter with out reason. This coming year I want to be a better wife. I want to be more loving, more forgiving, more patient, more helpful. I want to be the wife my sweet adorable husband deserves. So if anyone is reading this could you pray for this? Old habits are hard to break. I have known Peter for over half my life. I am so thankful for the wonderful man he is.
Speaking of thankful. . . . . . Happy Thanksgiving! We had a beautiful afternoon and evening at my sister Denise's house. Stayed up til 11 pm playing charades with my family....what a hoot!

Theres Another Driver In The House!

Well last Friday Anya went to the DMV and got her drivers permit! I took her out driving in a parking lot and she did better than i did my first time. She is very excited to start driving. We have been too busy to take her out again. She is eligible to take get her drivers license in 6 months. OH the fun of parenting a teenager.

Mary telling on Galina!

Sometimes being a mommy it is very hard to keep a straight face when your kids tell you something. This was one of those times, so I had to share!

Today is election day!

Halloween 2008

WOW I cant believe Halloween came and passed so quickley! The kids had a great time.

We had a horse, a cow girl and two 50s girls. Anya even wore Grandma Mary's skirt for the 50's.

A Day At The Park

Last week we went to the local "Duck Pond" park. The kids fed the ducks and got to see the veterans memorial that my dad's name is at (as well as my sisters). It was a beautiful day!
