Light a Candle

Thinking of Aaron as he deploys once again on our behalf, to serve his country and be separated from his family and friends. Lighting a candle in his honor until he returns to Jackie and Kinley! God Bless You Aaron! Love you guys! Be safe and come home safe!

Giving of Thanks

To The Troops & Familes

Gratitude

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, and confusion into clarity. ... It turns problems into gifts, failures into success, the unexpected into perfect timing, and mistakes into important events. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. - Melodie Beattie

The requests for me to keep this are low :) 

HOWEVER... to enable the fun of everyone to have a chance to view this awesome sight in person.... I may keep it till Christmas!!! POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS!!!!

Scary Vision

Now, there are many habits I believed I have inherited from my mother and father. Some good..... cleaning, organization, hard work.... and some bad.... ex-smoker (thank god), biting fingernails, lets call it "daily bathroom rituals", and well, now this!!! I have no idea how long it took my dad to suffer through growing a mustache, or at the time, probably the full beard - chops and all, and based on pictures we used to see, at times, wolverine like. I am kidding. But, this is rough. Glasses or not.... I feel like I could turn a corner and someone could say "Hello Richard!"

  

Miami Storage Antiques

On a day of our Miami trip, Ross and I took a day away from the beach and booze. So yes, we were not with the group when this happened.  Fun in the Sun!!

However, when we were out checkin out the town, we found this place called Storage Antiques. And we actually found it because we lost our way driving to Little Havana for espresso and cigars. In any case, we pull in to check it out. I am hesitant as this place, from the outside, is a little scary. I won't lie. But Ross convinces me to get out of the car and to start walking around the outside.

But once we went inside, it was a game changer. We toured this place for at least an hour.

Is it November 15?

And we wake up today to this today????!!
