Well, everybody has gone home and the house is quiet. I can still feel the brushes of love that was shared this weekend as I pick up toys and find cups with names on them scattered throughout the house and patio. I have rarely seen my parents so excited as everyone began to get here and the noise level was picked up on satellite. I will be posting pictures and commentary over on www.jdoliver.blogspot.com later on today and you can see some of the joy. My parents did not have a reception when they married, so they had never had a wedding cake. I took pictures of them as they cut the cake that I had made at the Salem bakery, and as they fed each other pieces of cake. Those are some of the best pics that I took because they only had eyes for each other.
This coming weekend we travel to the Lake of the Ozarks in central MO for a birthday celebration on the other side of the family. Eddy's aunt will be turning 80 and a lot of the Olivers from Arkansas are going to make the trip up to honor her and visit. I have never seen the lake so this will be a new place to put on my map of places that I've been.
I am excited about these travels as it gives me something to plan for during the week, and it doesn't seem so long.
well, I need to go work on editing all of the pictures. Oh, the one above this post is of myself and my gorgeous daughter-in-law, Codi. My niece took the picture on Saturday.
I am now a retired teacher, chess coach, quiz bowl coach, tutor, gifted and talented facilitator, dylslexia and disabled learner practioner.My autonomic nervous system is unable to return my blood to my heart and brain.(We use one damn powerful medication to do this all day long!) I am dependent on others for driving mobility, but not for thinking movement. I am in love with my camera lens.
