Bigs’ Anniversary

I’m still sick. I even stayed home from school one day. It was GREAT. The Bigs let me lounge on the couch and watch movies. Here I am enjoying “Snow White & The Seven Dwarfs”.

This week was The Bigs’ wedding anniversary. They didn’t seem to think it was a big deal, but I did. I started the morning with a card and dinner plans.

We went for a bike ride after school/work and then headed to the Yacht (or yot, as I like to spell it) Club for dinner.

And then I insisted on taking an anniversary portrait. I believe many of you readers have experienced my portrait taking, so you can feel for the Bigs. I decided the best place to take the shot would be in the garage…because I had made a huge Happy Anniversary sign and hung it from my trapeze, of course. I added the stool and framed picture to nicen things up.

This weekend we rode one of the greatest trails in Bend, Mrazek. Only one person fell. She’s not in this picture.

In other news, I have started work on the Colosseum. They figure it took between 7 and 8 years to build the real one, The Bigs reckon it may take as long to build the Lego one.

I’ve also been very busy in the kitchen. Just this morning, I seared pork,

seasoned it, wrapped it in banana leaves, and put it in the crockpot to cook.

I also made salads for all of us for lunch. Like all great cooks, I have someone to clean up after I am finished…

I wrapped up the weekend at Meera’s birthday pool party. They rented a private pool in someone’s backyard for a couple of hours. It was 55 degrees and cloudy, but the pool was 94 degrees and they had a hot tub. It was awesome!

Great job planning Mom and Dads anniversary and yes we are aware of your fanatical portrait set up’s. Looks like you have a major construction project going on in the living room and should be very busy. Hopefully not for 7 or 8 years. That water slide was not as big as Yawgoo 😂

Glad you’re feeling better and busy busy as usual. Your card was very nice and the anniversary portrait was well done.
Looks like a fun time at the pool not so much on the bike ride for whose missing from the picture🙀
