Ten Years Today

These two are celebrating their 10th Anniversary today. They had an overnight away last night and today in Idaho.

From their wedding, ten years ago…

Granny, Baba and Gramps are in charge of Addy and JJ while their parents are away.

On Thursday there was time on our acreage to see what they could discover. Gramps taught them how to whistle using a blade of grass. There was some sprinkler fun and hammering stakes in the ground. Lunch was an interesting combination of eggs, turkey sandwiches, a pancake, applesauce, sour cream and real maple syrup.

On Wednesday when I asked what treats Baba should have for their visit, JJ suggested popsicles. He said Ice cream can be eaten inside but popsicles are for outside.

Granny was in charge of Taekwondo and Baba was in charge of Irish Dance and then we all met up at one of the Mexican restaurants for dinner before Granny took Addy and JJ to their house for the night. There will be a slumber party in Addy’s room. As JJ put it at dinner, Granny is younger looking than me and she is in fact 13 years younger than me so the overnight gig was hers to enjoy!

I’m heading to the mountain this morning with a Sugar free Mocha with double shots to reward that young granny for taking the night shift!

A view from the mountain driveway. That barn is leaning more and more. We are all wondering when it will collapse.

Happy Friday everyone.

  1. I love his comment about the popsicles!! My first thought when I saw the last picture was, “is that barn leaning?” so I chuckled when I read your comment that it is indeed leaning!! Happy Friday – enjoy your grands!

  2. Awww…what fun JJ and Addy must have had at your place! The pictures make me want an invitation. 🙂 When our grandson was Addy’s age, he came for summer visits of a week or two at a time. He called it going to Camp Grandma. 🙂

    Happy Anniversary to your son and daughter-in-law. Ten years is a number to be congratulated on these days!

    Have a great weekend, Friend!

  3. I’ve seen a lot of barns that are leaning, and many that are fallen in, but never one that is still so intact even while it is leaning at such a sharp and seemingly precarious angle. I wonder if someone will hear it fall over suddenly, or will it just continue on its gradual way to becoming horizontal? Fascinating!!
