As soon as I got back from ATL, Greg and I headed to Paducah (2.5 hours away) for their 65th Wedding Anniversary.
These are Greg's paternal grandparents and are some of the sweetest people I know. 65 years!!! What an example for us all.
And a picture of the family that was able to come before we had dinner at Kentucky Dam.
And, me with a photo taken by Greg. I just bought some Photoshop actions from here and wanted to play around with this photo, since it's a bit overexposed. I'll post later in the week the progress I've made with learning said actions :)Finally....
Greg and I had a chance to go antiquing and I got this sucker for $20!!! Isn't she a beaut? (doesn't that sound like something the Griswald's would say?)
The "a" doesn't work, but I've figured out the issue and I think Greg can fix it relatively easily.Also, we picked up lots of other goodies that you'll just have to wait to see inside future Studio Calico kits. Perhaps Scarlet will let me show a sneak for you at some point, but for now, trust me that the next few months are gonna be grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat!
One more thing, I've been remiss in updating you regarding the friend of mine who went into early labor. She ended up having the baby (Riley Marie) and she was 5 lbs. 2 oz. A bit small and ended up having a feeding tube for a few days, but after about a week in the hospital, mom and baby are home and guess who I get to see tomorrow???? You guessed it. I'm heading to Cincy for work and me and my camera are taking a trip!

Beautiful long-married couple there. Whenever I see that/hear of that many years, I tear up, because it is quite wonderful.

I'm so jealous of your typewriter! The photo of you is lovely.
I've missed your blog posts! Good to see you posting again, love your pics, your finds, and your sense of humor!
Oh my! 65 years!? That's just incredible. Part luck, part perseverance, and lots of love I bet! Congrats to them!
As to your friend, 5# plus - that's almost an average sized baby! I bet they will both do just fine! Will think happy thoughts for them both!
Tact? I'm supposed to be tactful?
Love the typewriter! Whenever I see all of these great finds I want to go antiquing, just never seem to find the time.
And you must post sneaks!!
Cool typewriter! I think I may have the same one?--ok, it's DH and 10 years ago I told him get rid of the junk---10 years later it is in my scrapbook room looking good on the table. Funny how things work out!
