We're still here!

 We've been very busy since the last blog.   Our internet connection has been VERY spotty and, as I said, we've been super busy, so I haven't been able to write a proper blog.     I'll try to show you a few pictures of our 55th Anniversary adventures in Canada,  fingers crossed!

Anniversary morning


Our train entering one of the tunnels, en route

glaciers galore!

Medicine Lake (we saw three bears playing in the water!!)




 

hunting for rocks.....

  1. Well, Annie's artwork at the end was a shock! But, nice to see Jesse all decorated by his little girl. I really adored seeing the anniversary pictures! Especially that last one -- you'll hopefully find a place for framing that one as it just resonates your love for each other. What a lovely choice for this year especially -- British Columbia! So cool. Love you both ... Cindy

    1. Jesse probably won't be thrilled that I added his "daddy" moment, but I thought you'd get a kick out of it! Love you too Cindy....

  3. What a wonderful place to celebrate an amazing shared life! And good friends and eats make it even better :-) Beautiful pics, you both look wonderful. Annie is quite the artist - the plant hat is a nice touch.

  4. Thanks Jodee, it was a really great time spent with friends, and time spent alone. I thought the plant hat was a real hoot, I wonder if he even noticed it before he hit send!

    1. I think I agree, or at least it's in the top one or two favorites! "Decorated Dad" started a trend.... yesterday it was "decorated papa"! Perhaps it's Annie starting the trend?

  10. Happy Anniversary and what a beautiful spot to spend it. Love the Decorated Dad, I recall when the Granddaughter we Raised used to Art Up The Man, he was such a good Sport about it too. She's an Adult now and they're still exceptionally close becoz Grandpa let her Paint his Nails, put Barrettes in his Beard and Hair, have Tea Parties with her... and he's an Old Crusty Special Forces Marine, so it was rather hilarious.
