Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter. -- Brad Henry

25th Anniversary

Although we've been celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary for almost a year, the actual day was celebrated during Covid19.  I'm so glad we enjoyed a few trips leading up to this or we'd have been disappointed in cancelled plans.



We celebrated with Moe's takeout, first because the kids requested it, and second because we wanted to take a break from cooking and support local restaurants.  We even had "to go" margaritas from another local Mexican place that was on my way home from work.


While I was at work, Eric picked some fresh roses from one of our bushes and put them in his & hers jars.  



Since we had BBQ at our rehersal dinner, Eric picked up BBQ kolaches for our breakfast. I had to take off my face mask at work to enjoy it!



Our special dessert that evening was a German chocolate cake that Eric made, then the little one helped me whip up some homemade chocolate buttercream frosting.  The pecan-coconut frosting on top was still store bought, but we'll try that homemade next time as well.


It was a wonderful celebration with all the kids home to join us.  We wouldn't want it any other way.💗
