84 and 14

Yesterday when I heard the news that

Andy Williams died at the age of 84,

my first thought was of how I so enjoyed

his Christmas specials when I was growing 

up!  Oh how handsome I thought he was.

While seeing a report on TV later on, 

they flashed up his birth year, 1927...

That got me to thinking.  Dad was born in

1928, around the same age as Andy...

As many long time readers know, Dad passed

away in January 1987 (a week before my youngest,

my Andy, was born).  Had he lived til today, like 

Andy Williams, Dad would have been 84.

WOW!

Happy 84th Birthday Dad!

Sorta reminds you of Andy Williams, huh?

Wish we could be blowing out your candles

instead of thinking and wishing about it.

Miss you today, miss you always. 

oh and the 14, what does that have to do with it?

Google is 14 years old today!

Happy 14th Birthday Google!

Use you just about EVERY DAY.

Approaching 22,000 milestone!

For some bloggers this is simply peanuts!
For me, it's big time...
I would never have thought that there'd
be 22,000 hits on my simple blog...
but we're almost there, almost!

Maybe, just maybe, someday
I will try to make this blog o' mine
something.

For now, you're stuck with my
simple posts about things that
happen along my road of life.

Thanks for stopping and
Thanks for viewing...
all 22,000 of ya!

Well it's official...

The announcement went out on facebook

by mommy & daddy

so I can officially share the news with you!

My Scrump-Dylly-icious isn't the only one that

SUPER EXCITED!

SHHHHH... I have a secret!

I'm gonna be a big brother!

Couldn't you just EAT HIM UP?

I am SUPER EXCITED to have yet

another Scrumptious to hold, snuggle

and most of all, LOVE!

It will be a busy Spring season in 2013.

Newest addition to the family due March 15th.

Next addition to the family will be April 19th,

that's when my other daughter gets married

and her hubby will 'officially' become my son!

Have a good day!

LOOK Who's Two...

Can't get my camera upload onto the laptop, darn!

Well if I could, you'd see an updated picture of my
Scrump-Dylly-icious.  He's two today and I love
him more today than I did on the day he was born...

But THAT day, that day will go down as one of
my MOST FAVORITE days of my life!

His personality is so funny.  He knows how to make you laugh.
He's grown so much.

I am looking forward to him blowing out his candles
later today as we celebrate his arrival two years ago.
We'll be doing a Toy Story kinda day with Woody,
Buzz and the Evil Dr. Pork Chop! :)

He's been a bright spot in my life and a source of
nothing but happiness.

Thank you God for blessing me with this little man.

Can you believe that summer is almost over?

My how time flies.
Another Labor Day Holiday Weekend is history.
Another school year has begun for our youngsters.
Another football season has begun.

I remember when I was young how I thought that the days dragged on forever.
Oh how I wish time could slow down to that pace again.
I miss that time.

I wonder what would life be like (similar to that Benjamin Buttons movie) where you had the brain of an adult and the body of a child... what things would we choose to do differently?  Can you imagine?  I think I'd choose to play more... what happened to knocking up and playing with your friends? As an adult, I wish I could do that now.
Simply knock up and have fun with people you like to be with.

It also wouldn't hurt if mom and dad took over all the bills and worries that life throws at you.

My how time flies.
Another fall season to look forward to and see it fly by...
Christmas is just around the corner.
