Our family dinner was a lovely success
despite a candle-wax spill (entirely my fault)
and blurry pics (which I honestly don’t care because ambience is better)
and too much food (a first world problem).

We were happy
but missing Regan
and our eatables were delectable
on my great-grandmother’s wedding china.

And

with whom we celebrated last night…

This guy I married is pretty great and
I would like to stay with him
for a while longer.
He lets me do sheep stickers if the natural look is just not cutting it
photographically.

Wherever the rest of you are,
I hope you were loved today.
Happy Valentine’s Day
to all.
Nice Heath bits on that cake, love. Glad to oblige.

Great grandmother’s wedding china? Iām confused!
Other side of the fam. š Grandma Vinnie’s as I understand…
Aww, how lovely!! You know grief but you also know how to celebrate ā¤
Oh Shari you two are so stinkin cute!! All that food looks good. We had a very nice V-Day ourselves. We had heart shaped pizza from Pizza Hut and brownies.
I’m working on a post for your Otherspeak series but delete seems to be the theme because I can’t make my words flow and I end up deleting.
Sheep stickers, lol. The food looks scrumdiddlyumtpious!
My favorite picture is the last one.
Your definitely “in the swim” with using the cool photo apps.
