All Because

Okay, family.  Long time, no post.

Throat-clearing and finger-tapping.

As I have attempted my few preparations for Valentine's Day this year, I recalled when Grandma G. told a much, much younger me that her wedding anniversary was February 14th.  Up to that point, I had been unaware.  How romantic, I thought.  I wanted to be married on Valentine's Day too.  I wasn't.


Today is their 82nd anniversary.  

I can't help thinking of the sentiment, "All because two people fell in love."  (Which is NOT on a plaque hanging in my home.)  Because of them, to quote the Pointer Sisters, We Are Family.

And much, much larger than this nowadays.

And just for fun, I'm posting a few more random pics.  Who knows if these will have to suffice for another 10 months.  

More throat-clearing.










Happy Valentine's Day!
