Marriage: July 2007 Archives

Yesterday was our anniversary.It seems like we have been married forever but it has only been 3 years. That number surprises me. It should be more like 13 or 30. I feel like I have been with Steve all of my life even though I know in reality I have not. He came in yesterday afternoon bearing pink roses. Two colors of pink roses. He knows I love pink roses. I know he is going to bring me pink roses for special occassions. I anticipated the roses all day. They are gorgeous. Sometimes I don't think he hears me when I am talking a mile a minute. Yesterday he surprised me. He also brought me a small tiller for my garden. WOOT! I scored big time! It is something I really wanted. And he listened and retained that information for a long time. In return he is getting electric fencing. Yes, it is something he really wants. Aren't we the nerdiest little farmers you ever met?

My mother was a beautiful bride. She was excited. A little nervous. But most of all - very happy. We are home. The train was great. The weather was HOT and HUMID. I have 5 gallons of tomatoes, 1 peck of snap beans, 3 gallons of potatoes and umpteen cucumbers to finish today. I made salsa yesterday. It is awesome! Home grown tomatoes, jalepeno peppers, hot chili peppers, cilantro and onions with purchased garlic, lime and salt. Did I say it was hot? Yeah, the weather and the salsa. P.S. I don't think my mother looks 60. Does she?
