We Love Cheez It’s

Image

Don’t you just love the serious begging that is going on here?

Image

Of course I couldn’t resist his face….

 

Two Years

Yesterday was the second anniversary of my and Glen’s first date.  He was so thoughtful!  I came home from work to a beautiful bouquet of flowers, a card,a bottle of wine and a very well thought out dinner. 

Image

The picture really doesn’t do justice to how very pretty the flowers are.  They are just gorgeous!

Image

Glen bought bacon wrapped sirloins,lobster tails and twice baked potatoes for our dinner.  We grilled both the steaks and the lobster.

Image

I actually remembered, with the help of Glen, to get a picture of my plate before I devoured everything on it.  The dinner was so wonderful.  My gift to him seems so paltry compared to this wonderful feast.  I got him a cheese making kit….so we could try out hand at making cheese.  Future posts will prove how good a gift it turned out to be, so stay tuned.

Wild and Crazy Girl

Cats are great because the most inexpensive thing can become a toy.  Glen was teasing her with the string from the hoody he was wearing.

Image

Lilly:  Well, well….what do we have here? 

Image

Lilly:  String!!!  I love string!

Image

Lilly:  I must kill it!

Image

Lilly:  My work here is done.

Introducing a new toy

We were given another fun fishing pole for Lilly.  Naturally she was scared of it at first.

Image

Curiosity always gets the best of her though.

Image

Eventually she was playing with it like a long lost friend.

Girls Christmas Day Out

Yesterday my good friends Ila, Vickie and I got to have our annual Christmas outing.  This year we went to Brownes Irish Market in the Westport area of Kansas City.

Image

I had the reuben sandwich and a bowl of potato soup.  It was very very yummy.

Image

I also had a nice Irish hard cider to go along with it.

Image

Afterwards we were trying to decide what to do and we decided to head to Houlihan’s restaurant and have a beverage while we waited for the sun to set so we could go look at some Christmas lights. 

Image

Ila ordered an x rated flirtini, I had a skinny cosmopolitan, and Miss Vickie had a liter pitcher of long island iced tea.  They were all very tastey.

When my buzz wore off and the sun had set we headed out to Longview’s Christmas in the Park.

Image

It is a wonderful tradition that we have and I enjoy it every single year. 

Footie Print

Was trying to take a picture of a pretty blue jay the other day when I noticed that Lilly had left behind a cute little foot print on the window.

Image

So Sleepy

I was in the process of changing the sheets when Lilly decided that she just had to have a nap.

Image

It’s been a long sad day

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
