Special Month

Happy May Everyone! Hope that the weather is changing for the better for all of you. We have had nice days and not some nice days, but like the saying goes "Don't like the weather, wait an hour and it will change.

May is a special month for me/us. First off it is our anniversary and this year it is our 40TH!! Wow, really where has the time gone? Other then dinner out, we our laying low. This Winter/Early Spring has been very costly at the old farmhouse, oil, plumbing, etc. But we will get to celebrate again this month when Les (hubby) graduates from Auctioneering school. And while he will not officially be an auctioneer until he takes the state exam and passes he will officially be done with school on May 14th. It has been a long 10 weeks for us both but I am so proud of him, that he had the courage at his age (62) to decide it was time to make a change for the both of us.

Looking forward to working side by side with my auctioneer :-). Please keep him/us in your thoughts and once he passes I will let you know. And maybe we can do an auction for you!!

Yep this was the year we became husband and wife.

Here are a few pictures of our "special day"

Catch-up at Ginnysyard

It has been over a month since I last posted. I read everyone's blog but just didn't have the get up and go to post on mine :-(. But last nite I was going thru my blog roll and realized that one of my favorite blogs was no longer in operation, So, I got thinking I better hold on to the 21 followers that I have and give you ladies a update.

So, since I last posted this is what has happened;

Les and I celebrated our 39th wedding anniversary, not sure where all those years went!

We now have a new great, great niece named Teagen Lakota, that is a mouth full. Baby and Mom are doing good.

Mother's Day, Family and Friends Birthdays.

Full Strawberry Moon, I hear local strawberries are in, need to get some of those.

Booked our Late Spring/Summer schedule with our two auctioneers. Boy are we going to be busy bees :-).

Got the screened porch pretty much ready for some serious porch sitting with family and friends.

Memorial Day of which Les and I worked two auctions that weekend.

And now we are smack in the middle of a heat wave, in the SPRING!!

Coming up for us is work tomorrow, a pick-up with one of our auctioneers.

Les's Birthday on Monday.

A fun filled June with auctions o'plenty, lol.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day and weekend.

I really am going to try to do better, but you will notice I did not mention my yard. Can anyone guess what did not get done this past month.

Special Day

Thirty-Seven years ago today, May 4th, 1974, Les and I were married in a small chapel in the town that we grew up in, Metuchen, NJ. Unlike today the weather was beautiful. Blue skies, puffy clouds and WINDY!! So windy that I have a picture of us leaving the chapel and my veil getting wrapped around a column. I can still hear all the women gasping and runny to help me as I was being pulled backwards! So, what did we do today you ask? Nothing, Zip, Not a Thing. We did go out to our favorite seafood place nearby for a very, very, good dinner, drinks, dessert, coffee, in others words THE WORKS. Hope you have had a day just as wonderful as ours.
