This is just about our lives - four cats, two kids, a musician and a preacher.

We had the most interesting anniversary celebration today. Randy and I usually go out for a quiet evening when we can schedule it. On our actual anniversary day, we only do cards and maybe flowers. But Nathan needed more of a celebration.

So this afternoon, Nathan found a way for us to commemorate our 8th anniversary. We only had 20 minutes between coming home for the Science Center and Randy's afternoon meeting. But we fit it in!

We found a candle and took it outside. Then we gathered some special toys - a plastic baseball bat and a plastic sword. Nathan found a special spot for the candle in the front yard, and arranged the bat and sword beside it. After we lit the candle, Randy and I danced slow, stately dance. Nathan provided the background music as he rode his Big Wheel around the driveway. For those of you who watch Nick Jr., it sounded kind of like an extended BC Builders commercial.

Then we blew out the candle, and Nathan and Randy had a bit of combat play with the sword and bat. Then we lit the candle again and had some more dancing and Big Wheel riding.

Have you wondered what Lila thought of this? She was asleep in the van. She slept through the entire celebration. But she did get some anniversary cake later.
