Yesteryears....

Here's a picture I always set up at Christmas in a festive heart shaped frame. It's our first Christmas together, and we had a camera with the hands free apparatus that made picture taking a lot of fun for just two. You can see the pride on my face of doing our first Christmas tree. Hubby was in those modes of growing a beard. He goes through that at least every other year. He looks sharp in his, but it grows really curly, and it's hard to keep up, so he gets tired of fussing with it and will surprise me one day, and be all smooth again. I fuss for a minute, and then figure, it's nice to have a soft face to kiss. lol :). I was holding our first pet, Toby. Poor thing disappeared one day - broke our hearts! He was so sweet, and had the most beautiful green eyes. But, doggone it, he kept peeing in the house, no matter what I did - so I had to have him outside. I just hate it when animals disappear, then I always wonder what happened to them - it just makes my heart ache - sweet baby! I want to pet him! We never had a cat after that. They tend to wander, and I'll always have that worry. If we move to a place with lots of property, then I'll consider having another cat - if the dogs will let me!! :)



Thank you, Dear Father in Heaven, for the honor of celebrating 20 years of Christmases with such a wonderful man!
God bless you as you make and remember your memories, dear friends...
