My New Toy

My new stand mixer makes baking much easier and more fun.

Another angle...  ;)

The Epitome of Adorableness

On Sunday Randy and I went to see Meredith and family to celebrate her birthday with her.  We had a wonderful time visiting with Meredith, Steve, Andrew, and Heather; and of course, Emma.  Every time we get to see her I'm amazed at how intelligent, sweet, and beautiful she is.

Milestones of Life

Randy and I went to dinner tonight at Golden Corral.  Randy at the register: "Two buffets, one senior and one regular."

Randy's first "senior discount" meal.  Way to go, Randy!!

Year of the Garden 2011 Has Begun

In celebration of this past weekend's nice weather, Randy and Collin worked in the garden Sunday.  They dug, soaked, and planted potatoes, onions, and snow pea pods.

I'm not looking forward to the hot weather, but will welcome a green backyard again.

We are also interviewing apple varieties to choose dwarf or semi-dwarf trees for the backyard.  So far the leaders are Golden Delicious and Fuji.  Stay tuned for progress.

More Valentine Flowers

When I got home I took my beautiful flowers outside and took more pictures.  But just a few, 97 to be exact.

Love, love, love this yellowish orange Gerbera daisy

Peach roses are my favorite

To My Valentine...

I love you, Randy.  I'm glad you're my Valentine.
